SCREAMER SIREN l5mm Signal Pistol Launcher for bird and wildlife control Manufactured in Germany for: JPF Distributors, 9 Union Square, Suite 184, Southbury, Conn. 06488 Phone: 1- 800 -582 -8843 Contacts: Karen, Joe, or Joann I spoke with Karen who confirms what Paul Diegnau, Golf Course Superintendent, Keller Golf Course, told me about the effectiveness of this pistol. JPF Dist. sales escalated in 2002 with airports, golf courses, city parks, and farmers being their biggest customers. There is a one shot pistol and a two shot pistol. The two shot pistol that Paul has fires either a "bird banger" noise which is loud and sounds like a gun shot or a "bird screamer" noise which sounds like screeching or braking on a large vehicle. Karen recommends the "bird screamer" noise for residential areas. To begin with geese eradication Karen recommends using the pistol for 3 days in a row and then sporadically as needed. Pistol Prices: 1 shot Pistol = $38.00 2 shot Pistol = $48.00 (if you order more than one the price is $47.00) Pistol Colors: Orange or Black (I would recommend Orange) Cartridges for pistol: #50 Bird banger cartridges = $28.00 (if you order more than 1 box the price is $27.00) #50 Bird screamer cartridges = $28.00 (if you order more than 1 box the price is $27.00) 4-11 boxes of either cartridge = $26.00 12 or more = $25.00 Blanks for cartridges: #100 blanks = $6.00 * ** If we decide to proceed with the purchase I would recommend the following for Little Canada: 1 two shot pistol = $48.00 (in the event that the screamer isn't effective we still have the gunshot) 2 boxes bird screamer cartridges = $54.00 1 box bird banger cartridges = $28.00 (probably won't use these as often if at all) 1 box of blanks = $6.00 Grand Total: $136.00 (plus shipping and handling) 2
