Birds rely on their sight more than any other sense, so it’s no surprise that our visual pyrotechnics provide great results for wildlife managers at airports, landfills, and beyond.
Here’s a look at some of our 15mm visual pyrotechnic scare cartridges:
Comet Bangers are a highly visible pyrotechnic round at close range and can be fired out of any 15mm pyrotechnic launcher. The Comet Banger cartridge creates a visible green stardust effect with additional crackling noise. After extensive testing at airfields in the Pacific Northwest, the Comet Banger has been found to be extremely successful at scaring gulls, bald eagles and other raptors. It also works well with other bird species. The green effect is easily visible in all light conditions.

Screamers with Silver Comet are highly visible scare cartridges that produce a loud screeching noise with a sparkling tracer effect. With a range of 250 – 300ft (75m – 90m), these unique pyrotechnics produce an unusual, alarming sound, resulting in an immediate fear response in birds and animals.
The Bangers with Green Trace are similar to our standard Bangers. In addition to the benefits of the standard Banger, the Banger with Green Trace adds a visual effect for increased deterrence.

Whistlers with Silver Comet are an effective 15mm audio-visual deterrent.

The alarming sound results in an immediate fear response in birds and animals. Margo Supplies also carries regular Whistlers without the Silver Comet effect in addition to the Pyro Screamers with Silver Comet.
