NAIL: Nest Abandonment Induction Laser

Protect your assets before the birds move in.

Laser precision. Wildlife safe.

Avian nesting on utility infrastructure threatens grid reliability, equipment integrity, and wildfire safety. NAIL (Nest Abandonment Induction Laser) leverages ravens’ natural aversion to green laser light — delivering a non-lethal, non-invasive solution that prevents nesting before eggs are laid, eliminating costly damage without harming wildlife.

How it works:

Built for the field. Backed by science.

NAIL exploits the well-documented sensitivity of corvids (ravens and related species) to directed green laser light. The device mounts above a transformer on a custom-designed crossarm bracket and projects a targeted laser pattern that deters ravens from landing and nesting on the structure below.
