GreenHero Raptor Perch Pole

The GreenHero perch pole for raptors (also known as “Jule”) is the most natural way of deterring rats, mice, pigeons and other pests from yards, car parks or gardens. The common buzzard and the kestrel in particular are the most effective natural enemies of mice and rats. As a side effect, pigeons also feel threatened by the bird of prey and stay away from its hunting ground.

The raptor perch pole has an overall height of 3.90 m and an installed height of 3.60 m, as half of the ground sleeve (30 cm) is inserted into the ground. The pole itself has a diameter of 6 cm, the ground sleeve has a diameter of 7 cm.

The raptor perch pole is best placed in open areas from which the bird of prey can carry out its “perch hunting” – but birds of prey can also feel at home in large urban gardens.

When hunting from a perch, birds of prey use considerably less energy than when hunting directly from flight. The perch pole offers the bird of prey exactly this position, which is usually missing even in an ideal hunting ground.

Installation

Detailed installation instructions (German) are included with the set. Bear in mind that a bird of prey does not stay in the same area all the time – but as long as it keeps finding mice and other prey, it will return to this hunting ground. Birds of prey (especially the common buzzard) are particularly effective against voles.
