basic information
■ The town of Yoichi in Hokkaido, which became famous through NHK's morning drama "Massan," has many wineries that cultivate grapes. However, I have heard that once the grapes start to bear fruit, about 30% of the harvest suffers damage from crows. ■ Therefore, after starting to use this tape (actually purchased 100m), the damage to grapes from crows has drastically decreased. It is said that the harvest of "walnuts," which were cultivated together, has tripled. ■ Key points for usage: Cut the 6m tape into pieces about 50cm long and hang them in various places with string to sway in the wind. Crows tend to avoid the surrounding area. ■ This tape is also used in the grounds of Sapporo's important cultural property "Sapporo Clock Tower Crow Control" (video on YouTube) and around the Hakodate Ropeway. Effective period: 3 to 6 months --------------------------------------------------- ■ It is said that crows have eyes capable of distinguishing ultraviolet light and possess five times the visual acuity of humans. Because of this, they are sensitive to the "luminescence" emitted from ink and dislike the wavelength of that light. ■ The repellent effect (not approaching) has been recognized against crows, as well as birds of prey such as hawks and black kites, or other birds with good eyesight.

Success in strawberry cultivation in a greenhouse using this method!! When I saw the photos that were sent, I felt that the hanging location was a bit too high, but the owner said, "This keeps them (crows) completely away," and was very happy. Tochigi Prefecture: Mr. Ishiwatari.

Successfully implemented measures against crows gathering around the large tree in the residential area. Especially in the evening, many crows would hide in the tree or perch on its branches, making loud noises. Additionally, since the tree is located in front of a house, it was quite troublesome. After hanging tape in the tree as shown in the photo, the number of crows rapidly decreased, and we were delighted with the success.

Measures against crows staying on the balcony Crows that perch on the balcony wall and look into the room to see what's happening inside. The countermeasure taken was to stick a sticker from inside the room and to hang tape from the sliding door outside to make it sway. With these two methods, they completely stopped coming.
Company information
After 30 years of researching starfish, an underutilized resource, we discovered that the extract (marine saponin) obtained through our unique biotechnology contains various benefits that can be useful in our daily lives. Utilizing this extract, we have developed several products so far. ★ The first product we tackled was a deodorizer. Additionally, we created a repellent to keep crows away. Currently, products such as stickers and tapes are sold under the name "SARABA Karasu-kun" through retail and online shops. ★ We also commercialized the world's first crow repellent paint, "Bird Colenger." This product is used in places like fish processing plants and precision machinery factories that suffer from bird strikes and droppings, effectively providing a repellent effect. ★ In 2023, we completed a solid soap called "SAVON." Its significant features include alleviating skin itching and mold due to the effects of marine saponin, making it not only a soap that washes away dirt but also one that improves skin conditions, allowing us to enter the industry.
