  • Method of inhibiting bird-nesting at an airport
    Patent number: 4091625
    Abstract: A method which contemplates the application of a porous, fabric-like cover over bird-nesting areas at airports, to serve as a physical barrier preventing the natural use by the birds of any nominal vegetation which might grow beneath same, so as to effectively inhibit continued use of these areas for said bird-nesting activities. This, in turn, minimizes the hazards posed by birds to jet planes using the airport.
