AWG Dock Unit

The Dock Unit is recommended for docks where geese they congregate to be safe from predators, and to control geese on the land and water immediately surrounding the dock. It is useful for those who have restrictions on having things stay in their waterfront. It features an amber 360-degree solar-powered LED light that flashes every two seconds, from dusk to dawn, year-around.

• Like the Residential Unit, the light is mounted on a cylindrical base comprised of ¼-inch thick ABS black plastic that will never fade, crack, or need to be replaced.
• Installation is simple; the base inserts into the galvanized steel Dock Bracket that is bolted to the side of the dock.
• Additional Dock Bracket(s) can be purchased to change the location of the Dock Unit between different areas of the dock, which adds an additional level of deterrence.

The light is scarcely noticeable to humans but is very disruptive to the sleep of the geese: it is directly at their eye level, and is annoying to their incredibly sensitive eyesight. Geese choose to sleep at marinas, on docks, and at other locations that feel safe to them, in which they are free of threats from predators while they rest, and where they have a good vantage point of the surrounding area. The light causes them to no longer feel secure at night. Because geese prefer to sleep and eat in the same area, they will no longer find this area attractive during the day either, and will leave to find another habitat usually after just a few restless nights. To humans, this light is very dim: in 15 years, no one has ever complained about it bothering them.

The LED light component has been specifically designed to be trouble-free and effective. The LED light is integrated with the solar-powered battery, and specially sealed to withstand any weather conditions. The solar panels that span the top of the light only need 15 minutes of sunlight per week to operate, and a fully charged battery (6-8 hours of sunlight) will operate the light for 6 nights. The light is guaranteed for its estimated life of two years, though the average lifespan of a light is 4-5 years.

The unit has a 100-yard effective radius and is useful for deterring geese from docks, marinas, and the adjacent land and water areas. It is maintenance free, satisfaction guaranteed, and comes with a two-year parts warranty. Fill out our short, free Placement Study for our professional recommendation of the type and number of units, and their most effective placement for your property, via email.
