Description
Laser Sentry Automated Goose & Bird Deterrent
The Shore-Tech Industries Laser Sentry is a fully automated, humane laser bird deterrent designed to keep geese and other nuisance birds away from lakefront properties, ponds, docks, shorelines, lawns, marinas, farms, parks and commercial properties.
The system projects a moving green laser across programmed areas of your property. Geese and other birds perceive the moving light as a threat and leave the area.
Because Laser Sentry operates automatically throughout the day, you get continuous bird deterrence without constantly chasing geese, moving decoys or operating a handheld device.

Keep Pressure on Geese Without Constantly Chasing Them
Automated laser bird deterrent technology has been shown to reduce bird nuisance by more than 70%.
Instead of requiring someone to repeatedly chase birds off the property, Laser Sentry automatically moves the laser through the areas and operating times you program.
Fully Automated
Once installed and programmed, Laser Sentry operates according to the path and schedule you establish.
Moving Green Laser
The laser moves through programmed areas instead of remaining stationary in one location.
Silent Operation
Control nuisance bird pressure without cannons, alarms or other disruptive noise-producing deterrents.
Non-Lethal Control
Encourage birds to leave the protected area without poisons, traps or lethal control methods.
Built for the Places Geese Keep Coming Back To
Laser Sentry is especially useful for lake and pond owners dealing with geese moving from the water onto lawns, docks, beaches and shoreline areas.
Lakefront Lawns
Target suitable lawn areas where geese repeatedly feed, loaf and leave droppings.
Docks & Boat Lifts
Deter birds from suitable land areas near docks, boat lifts and waterfront access points.
Beaches & Swim Areas
Reduce nuisance bird activity on appropriate land areas surrounding frequently used recreation zones.
Pond Banks & Marinas
Program suitable shoreline and property areas where geese and other birds repeatedly gather.
Program the Areas You Actually Need to Protect
Every property is different. Laser Sentry lets you create a custom cruise path based on the locations where nuisance birds create the most problems.
Up to 80 individual positions can be saved to create the laser's programmed path.
Build a path around suitable lawn, shoreline, pond-bank, marina, agricultural or commercial areas and create scheduled operating periods based on bird activity.
Automated Coverage Without Daily Bird Patrols
No Constant Operator
Unlike a handheld goose laser, the system does not require someone to manually operate it throughout the day.
No Decoy Repositioning
There are no stationary predator decoys that need to be continually moved around the property.
No Noise Makers
The system operates silently without propane cannons, sirens or repetitive distress sounds.
No Chemical Treatment
Laser Sentry provides visual bird deterrence without applying chemical turf repellents or poisons.
Stop Letting Geese Take Over Your Lawn, Shoreline, Dock or Beach
If geese repeatedly use your waterfront property, Laser Sentry provides an automated, humane way to maintain deterrent pressure without requiring constant attention.
Program the areas you want to protect, set the operating schedule and let Laser Sentry handle the recurring bird-control routine.

FAQs
Laser Sentry Automated Goose Deterrent FAQs
Answers to the most important questions property owners typically have before purchasing an automated laser bird deterrent.
Does Laser Sentry actually work for Canada geese?
Laser Sentry is specifically designed to deter geese and other nuisance birds by moving a green laser through the areas they are using. Birds perceive the moving light as a threat and are encouraged to leave the protected area.
The current product information notes that automated laser bird deterrent technology has been shown to reduce bird nuisance by more than 70%. Actual results depend on bird pressure, site layout, programming, operating schedule and other environmental conditions.
What is the difference between the 500 mW and 1W Laser Sentry models?
The primary difference is effective operating range. The 500 mW model is intended for approximately 330–650 ft. of range, while the 1W model is intended for approximately 650–1,000 ft.
Choose the model based on the distance between the mounting location and the areas you need the laser to reach.
Does someone need to operate Laser Sentry manually?
No. That is one of the main advantages of Laser Sentry. After installation, path programming and scheduling are completed, the device can automatically operate according to the programmed routine.
Unlike a handheld goose laser, you do not need someone outside manually operating the laser every time geese arrive.
How much of my property can I program the Laser Sentry to cover?
Coverage depends on the model, mounting location, property shape, terrain, line of sight and obstructions such as buildings, trees or landscaping.
The unit provides continuous 360° horizontal positioning and allows up to 80 individual path points to be programmed. The 500 mW model has an effective range of approximately 330–650 ft., while the 1W model reaches approximately 650–1,000 ft.
How difficult is Laser Sentry to set up and program?
Setup involves securely installing the unit upright, attaching the antenna, connecting power and pairing the device with the Smart Life mobile app.
From the app, use directional controls to position the laser over each safe ground location and save those positions to create the automated cruise path. You can then create operating schedules and select run and pause durations.
Does Laser Sentry require Wi-Fi?
The product uses Bluetooth for device pairing and local setup through the Smart Life app. Bluetooth communication can reach approximately 250 ft. in an open area without significant signal interference.
Once the operating path and schedules are saved, the device can carry out its programmed routine automatically.
Can Laser Sentry stay outside in rain and changing weather?
Laser Sentry has an aluminum alloy housing and an IP65 protective structure rating. Its listed operating temperature range is approximately -20°F to 140°F.
The unit must still be installed upright and according to the installation instructions.
Is Laser Sentry safe around people, pets and the lake?
Laser Sentry uses a high-output green laser, so proper installation and programming are essential.
Never program the beam toward people, animals, windows, water, reflective surfaces, roads, vehicles, aircraft or the sky. Never look directly into the laser beam.
The laser should remain on appropriate non-reflective land surfaces within the intended bird-control area.
How is Laser Sentry powered?
Laser Sentry operates on 12V DC and consumes approximately 24 watts. The standard configuration uses electric power and the current product offering also identifies an optional solar power configuration.
The listed power cable length is 16.4 ft.
Will geese eventually get used to the same laser pattern?
Birds can become accustomed to repeated deterrent routines over time. If you notice nuisance bird activity increasing even while the system is operating, change the programmed laser path.
You can also adjust operating schedules, run times, pause durations and laser frequency based on bird activity at your property.
Periodically changing the routine helps keep the deterrent less predictable.
