Problems solved by technology

While Kretsch seeks to deter trespass by geese on foot, it is not designed to stop birds from roosting on structures above ground.
Both Gratton and Kretsch are also insufficient in that they constitute “fences” only, which may not deter birds from landing behind the “fences” (e.g., inside a large balcony).
For example, birds that nest on transmission towers obstruct workers from conducting maintenance and construction activities on the towers, causing costly delays.
Birds also roost on power poles and interfere with transmission lines, causing electrical damage and outages that interfere with homes and businesses.
