Photo Album: Utilizing Shock Track to Exclude Nuisance Birds in Far Hills, NJ
That's a Lot of Turkey Vultures
As you can see, their are a bunch of turkey vultures roosting on the roof.
Causing a Health Hazard
Which means they are defecating all over the roof, causing a severe health hazard to the occupants and damaging the roof.
Install Shock Track
After we disinfected the area, we began installing Shock Track. Shock track is a low-profile ledge deterrent system that is effective against all species of nuisance birds and utilizes the principle of fear and flight.
Keep Them Away
The unique electrically charged tracks impart a mild electrical shock when the turkey vultures land on them. The shock will not harm them, but will condition them to avoid the area.

The shock track gets affixed to roof, with no screws, and is connected to a solar-powered charger.
Don't Forget Daddi
Lastly, we installed Daddi Long Leggs on all the exhaust fans. What the Daddi Long Leggs do is startle the nuisance birds and prevent them from roosting on the roof. This is considered a physical barrier deterrent, which is the most effective long-term solution and most importantly, doesn't harm the turkey vultures.
