Heron from Defenders
Standing grey Heron deters birds from attacking ponds and fisheries.
Placing decoy herons by the side of ponds has been shown to deter the real thing from feasting on fish. Herons normally go fishing early in the morning or at dusk, and will be bolder in the spring when they have young to feed. Protects fisheries, ponds and other aquatic areas. Decoy Heron is UV-resistant to ensure a long life of predator protection. Ideal for water gardens, koi ponds, fish farms, and pools.

Defenders pond protection range
Part of the Defenders pond protection range offering a comprehensive range of products that deter against unwanted wildlife and predators.
Pond Predators
With over 3 million ponds and pools across UK gardens, many attract unwanted wildlife and predators that can be easily deterred using a variety of products on the market.
The most common pond predators are herons and cats, opportunist predators that sit waiting at the pond edge to strike. Herons often inspect local ponds and lakes in search of a catch. They feed mostly on aquatic organisms; their favourite dishes being small fish, frogs, and any large insects or larvae. Due to their diet, garden ponds are especially attractive as feeding grounds for herons.
Decoys
Herons are solitary feeders and don't like to share their feeding ground with others. Placing a fake heron around your pond area is often enough to stop real herons from landing and feeding.
Other floating faux predators will protect your pond from attack. Reflective surfaces like mirrors or floating Diamond-Light Pond Protectors will also give protection that moves around on the surface of the water.
Motion Sensor Repeller
The Jet-Spray Pond & Garden Protector offers another tool in the defence against pond predators. Using a PIR motion sensor it activates a jet of water sharply repelling herons, foxes, cats and other nuisance wildlife from your garden.
The full range of products from Defenders offers protection for your pond and will keep predators at bay.
