FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Summary: Scary seagulls are terrorizing tourists by attacking them and stealing their food. The hungry birds have been swooping down on children and stealing food out of their hands and even their mouths! Gull chaser can be used on boats of any size, row boats, canoes, sailboats, jet skis, Seadoos, docks, decks, porches, pool covers, solar covers, pools, mooring fields, cottages, and houses. Anywhere to ward off the destructiveness of seagulls.

Gull Chaser Provides a Friendly and Effective Deterrent to Help Protect Boaters

New Hampshire, January 10, 2006 – Gull Chaser is an innovative product that absolutely deters seagulls and other pesky birds from landing on water craft, docks, or other structures. The Gull Chaser consists of three specially colored marine ropes intertwined with florescent pennants, which are evenly spaced along the length of each rope. Each rope is equipped with marine grade metal snap hooks for easy attachment to cleats fore and aft. Extensive studies in sea gull behavior have revealed that the unique movement and placement of the Gull Chaser ropes have a special and reliable ability to ward off birds before they land. The Gull Chaser is one of only two devices currently available on the market for keeping unwanted water birds away from boats.

Gull problems often occur at dump sites due to the food opportunities present, as well as at harbors and pier areas, especially where fishing boats bring in their catches. Flocks of gulls often create hazardous conditions to low flying aircraft and can cause bird strikes around airports. Large buildup of gull droppings leads to structural damage from the uric acid in the bird droppings. This is often seen on boats, streetlights and coastal rooftops. Other sea gull problems include slip and fall liability from dropping buildup, plus an unclean, dirty company image. The bacteria, fungal agents and ectoparasites found in gull droppings can carry a host of serious diseases, including histoplasmosis, encephalitis, salmonella, meningitis, toxoplasmosis and more. Many companies also retain significant clean up costs due to gull problems they don't resolve, as well as customer complaints from the noise and aggressive nature of the gulls.

As of 2004, nearly 70 million recreational boaters are forced to ward off the ravages of seagulls while on the water or docked at a marina. The makers of Gull Chaser have found a guaranteed way to keep seagulls from landing on boats, boat covers that has been proven in morning fields, docked boats, and also tested on the beach with fish as bait.

 Users of Gull Chaser have this to say about the product:

"This is one of the best products on the market." George, Long Island New York
 

"No more cleaning my boat after those birds, such a great system. Thank you..."
Linda, New Hampshire

"I put the Gull Chasers on my boat and instantly there were no seagulls near my Speedboat."

Bob, Wisconsin

“We put the Gull Chaser on the roof of our cottage and to date we have not had any Seagulls on the roof.” Nance, Canada

Gull Chaser comes in various sizes to fit lengths of boats, and starts at a retail price of $49.99. The producers of Gull Chaser also offer custom made sizes to accommodate boats that are bigger or smaller than the pre-manufactured models.

"For as long as I can remember my family has had to contend with seagulls and the mess they can leave behind on your docks, boats, and patio furniture.

That afternoon, my father came up with the Gull Chaser system, and it's been working for our family, friends, neighbors, and now our customers ever since! This really is a case of necessity becoming the mother of invention!"

The Gull Chaser consists of three specially colored marine ropes intertwined with florescent pennants, which are evenly spaced along the length of each rope.
