Secure Covers on Silage Bags

This application for Secure Covers has done surprisingly well. Most of the time this becomes necessary to battle birds. However, we do have a farmer who used them to protect long term storage that had previously been victimized by an unscrupulous deer.

Birds poke holes not only with their beak, but with their claws as they hold onto the bag landing and walking. Secure Covers allow the birds to keep their talons to themselves and do a great job deterring opportunistic feeding on your valuable silage.

For the Birds!

This farmer was having trouble with birds on the top of his bags. They would peck through up and down the bag. He would tape it up. They peck again. He tapes again. They peck again. He tapes again. Etc Etc Etc.

The other thing about it was he found later that the bird's talons would puncture tiny holes which went unnoticed but caused just as much spoilage.

The Secure Covers did a great job counteracting the birds, not to mention a rather energetic dog that liked to do sprints on the top of the bags!
