Abstract
A mechanical bird removal device, wherein a bow string is pulled taut, by means of a tow line, across an area to be swept free of unwanted birds. Upon activation of the device, the tow line is allowed to momentarily “free wheel”, thus releasing the bow string to sweep across the area, thus scaring or physically forcing the birds away. Once the area has been swept free of birds, the tow line once again is reeled in and thus resets the bow string for the next cycle.
