How Long Does a Gas Cylinder Last?

A 9kg Gas Cylinder will provide approximately 9,000 bursts from the Mechanical Bird Scare Cannon. (Approx 1,000 bursts per kg of Cylinder)

If the cannon is operated on double burst, every 5 minutes for 12 hours during the day, the cannon will activate 24 times in 1 hour, which will provide 288 bursts per day.

Using this example, our cannon, using a 9kg cylinder will have an average usage time of approximately 31 days.

Installation & Operation

Inside the Product Box, you will find the following components: 1 main body, 1 end barrel labeled as (No.30), 1 fine adjustment valve designated as (No.39) for use with small tubes, and a user manual.

  • Begin by attaching the end barrel (No.30) to the main body protruding from the box. Utilize a 10-11 wrench to secure it in place, ensuring that the barrel remains stable. Note that the diaphragm (No.29) on the main body’s muzzle should not be removed.
  • Connect the fine adjustment valve (No.39) to the small cylinder.
  • Switch the device’s safety catch to the ON position.
  • Open the valve on the cylinder.
  • Gradually adjust the upper valve (Fine regulating valve) of the device to the 1.5 position. As you do this, you will observe the bellows beginning to inflate, followed by a “click” sound after some time. Once the inflation process is complete, the bellows will discharge and reset. The device will now detonate at regular intervals. Avoid fully opening the sensitive adjustment valve during the initial setup, as this might prevent proper detonation.
  • You can modify the burst time setting by manipulating the valve setting—opening and closing it.
  • If you move the sensitive adjustment valve towards the zero position (0), the device’s detonation timing will be prolonged.
  • Operate the device within a blasting time range of 2 to 20 minutes. Please do not use it for durations shorter or longer than this range.
  • Apply engine oil to lubricate the device once per week.
  • When not using the device, close the valve and switch it to the SAFETY position.
  • For operating the device with a larger tube, please inquire with our company about obtaining a regulator. Note that this may incur an additional charge.

Warning:

  • If you observe that the safety is engaged upon receiving the device initially or during subsequent use, ensure that the silicone hose depicted in drawing-3 is not obstructed or crushed. A blocked silicone hose could impede gas flow. If it is obstructed, unscrew the hose, gently open it using your fingers, and then reposition it.
  • During the initial startup, the gas in the bellows might not fully fill the gas tank, potentially leading to a weak or silent initial explosion. In this case, wait for the hammer to fall again while the fine adjustment valve is set to the 2 position.

FAQs

How long does the gas cylinder last?

The longevity would depend on the size of gas cylinder used with the Bird Scare Cannon - Mechanical, but an average cylinder makes roughly between 3000-5000 explosions.

Have your scare guns been used on wild dogs

We have had some customer feedback for the Bird Scare Cannon - Mechanical which they've told us it has been useful on wild dogs, but we haven't done this testing ourselves at this stage. The unit operates by creating a loud sound when it activates, I'd imagine it would be frightening for most animals, not just birds.

    This cannon has been a lifesaver for our orchard. It’s loud, but it really works! We’ve seen a huge drop in bird damage since installing it. Easy to set up and very durable in all weather.

    Birds used to eat half my grapes before harvest. Tried fake owls and tape and all that, nothing worked. This cannon does the trick! Really easy to use once you figure it out.

    The noise is intense, which is exactly what it needs to be to scare birds away. We put this in our vineyard, and it’s been working well. Just make sure you’re in a rural area, we had a quick chat with neighbours before installing. The propane cylinder lasts a long time, and it’s built tough to handle the weather, highly recommended!

    Really good! We’re on a dairy farm and last year had over 400 ducks on the effluent pond and surrounding area. This year, with using the cannon, the ducks take off straight away once it starts going and we have on average 40 ducks hanging around. Very happy 😊

Can u make it louder than what it cones like? Will Willis asked on 28 January 2026

Hi Will, no the cannon’s loudness is fixed by its design and gas pressure. Removing the tip barrel can slightly reduce the sound, but this only lowers it. It cannot make it louder than the normal 110–120 dB blast.

Hi can this cannon be set to automatically stop during the day? So it only works during dawn and dusk? Michelle Krause asked on 7 October 2025

Hi Michelle, The Pestrol Bird Scare Cannon | Mechanical operates manually and doesn’t include a built-in timer, so it can’t automatically stop during the day or be set for specific times.

If you’d like the cannon to only work at certain times (such as dawn and dusk), the Pestrol Bird Scare Cannon | Electronic is the best option. It features a programmable timer that allows you to set precise start and stop periods, giving you full control over when it activates.
