Decoys
Pondh2o stock a comprehensive range of pond protection decoys and items to deter unwanted pond visitors like herons and Canadian Geese
Pond protection decoys can be broken into three categories to choose what you feel will be most effective for your pond but remember none of the items are totally effective 100% effective. Remember to check out our Information Center for our article on Heron Protection.
Barrier Products
These are mainly Pond Netting type pond products and we stock all types sizes and price ranges from suppliers all over the world. Most come with fixing stakes as well. Usually the most effective pond protection but netting can look unsightly.
The Velda Heron Stop is a great simple product as herons do not like to climb over barriers so is a simple unobtrusive pond barrier system and the bells create a noise deterrent.
Natural Decoys
The most common and widely used is the Blue Heron Decoy, as Herons are generally the biggest natural problem, with ponds generally been clear filtered pond water with brightly colored goldfish and koi is no wonder why they can be treated like the local sushi restaurant. Heron decoys are more effective if moved around the pond every 3-4 days and removed in the Spring mating season.
Herons are solitary creatures and prefer to feed alone so the idea is they see a heron from above already at the pond and carry on to another place to feed.
All decoys work better when part of a bigger strategy with other items like a barrier system or other decoys like the Alligator Head, Hawk or Owl.
Pond Distractions
Distraction items like the Velda Stop Spinner or the Velda Heron Stop Reflector cause reflecting light, movement and sound to distract and scare the pond intruder away.
