Abstract

A fowl management system is provided. The fowl management system includes a protected surface; a wire mesh at least partially suspended above the protected surface; wherein at least a portion of the wire mesh conducts an electrical current; a fence charger attached to the wire mesh; and a power source attached to the protected surface.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A fowl management system, comprising:
 a. a protected surface;   b. a wire mesh at least partially suspended above the protected surface; wherein at least a portion of the wire mesh conducts an electrical current;   c. a fence charger attached to the wire mesh;   d. a power source attached to the protected surface;
 wherein at least a portion of the protected surface and at least a portion of the wire mesh are parallel or substantially parallel to each other. 
   
     
     
         2 . The fowl management system of  claim 1 , wherein the protected surface is a roof. 
     
     
         3 . The fowl management system of  claim 2 , further comprising at least one side connector attached to at least a portion of the protected surface and at least a portion of the wire mesh, wherein the wire mesh is at least partially suspended above the protected surface via the side connector. 
     
     
         4 . The fowl management system of  claim 3 , further comprising at least one corner connector attached to at least a portion of the protected surface and at least a portion of the wire mesh, wherein the wire mesh is at least partially suspended above the protected surface via the corner connector. 
     
     
         5 . The fowl management system of  claim 4 , further comprising one or more insulators, wherein the insulator is attached to the side connector or the corner connector. 
     
     
         6 . The fowl management system of  claim 2 , wherein the roof is a roof of a gas station. 
     
     
         7 . The fowl management system of  claim 5 , further comprising a means for grounding the fowl management system. 
     
     
         8 . The fowl management system of  claim 7 , wherein the wire mesh comprises an electric wire mesh and a non-electric wire mesh. 
     
     
         9 . A kit comprising:
 a. the fowl management system of  claim 7 ; and   b. instructions.   
     
     
         10 . A method for reducing or eliminating fowl waste from a protected surface, or preventing fowl from excreting on the protected surface, comprising the steps of:
 a. providing a fowl management system comprising:
 1. a wire mesh at least partially suspended above the protected surface; 
 2. a fence charger attached to the wire mesh; 
 3. a power source attached to the protected surface; 
 4. at least one insulator attached to the wire mesh 
 wherein the protected surface and the wire mesh are parallel or substantially parallel to each other. 
   
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10 , further comprising the step of:
 a. providing fowl an electric shock if they make contact with the wire mesh; thereby preventing fowl from sitting on the roof top long enough to excrete.   
     
     
         12 . A fowl management system, compromising:
 a. a protected surface;   b. a wire mesh at least partially suspended above the protected surface; wherein at least a portion of the wire mesh conducts an electric current; and wherein the protected surface is a man-made structure.   
     
     
         13 . The fowl management system of  claim 12 , wherein the protected surface is the roof of a gas station.
