Purivox: 30+ Years of German Engineering for Proven Bird Control
For more than three decades, Purivox in Germany has been manufacturing high-quality gas guns designed to withstand harsh outdoor conditions and provide years of dependable operation. Known for their durability and precision engineering, these gas guns deliver consistent performance season after season.
Unlike many mechanical models, all Purivox gas guns are fully electronic—offering greater reliability, enhanced safety, and smarter control over timing, volume, and shot patterns.
Why Purivox Gas Guns Are So Effective
Purivox has become a trusted name among New Zealand growers thanks to its blend of power, efficiency, and intelligent automation.
1. Targets all bird species across large areas
Gas guns provide wide-coverage deterrence, making them one of the most cost-effective tools for protecting vineyards, paddocks, and seed crops.
2. Smart electronic controls
Easily adjust timing, shot frequency, and operational patterns to suit different crops, blocks, and local compliance requirements.
3. Randomised delays prevent habituation
Built-in randomisation keeps birds from learning the pattern - maintaining effectiveness throughout the entire season.
4. 24-hour timer with precise scheduling
Set on/off times in 30-minute increments for full control. More accurate and reliable than old-style light-sensor models.
5. Highly economical on gas and battery
A single 9kg LPG bottle can deliver over 15,000 shots, significantly reducing running costs.
6. Adjustable volume for different environments
Control volume electronically and by tuning the blast tube.
Purivox gas guns can deliver up to 146 dB at 1m or 96 dB at 100m—perfect for large-area protection.
Growers Praise Purivox for Reliability, Power & Cost Savings
Seed Grower – Canterbury
“Having tried every gas gun on the market, nothing is as good as the Pestgard Purivox gas gun. Our company has been using them for more than 16 years. We have over 200 guns in use every year. They’re easy to put up, reliable, and they work. Three to four guns cover a 10-hectare field very well.”
Vineyard – Marlborough
“We operate three gas guns in our vineyard and historically used Hunter models. Last year we trialled a Purivox Carousel and were very impressed. This season we used two Purivox units alongside one Hunter on the same block. After six weeks, the comparison was clear:
— Purivox used only 60% of a 9kg LPG bottle and the batteries lasted the entire season.
— Hunter used three 9kg bottles and needed a mid-season battery recharge.
Even more impressive: the Carousel delivers a louder shot.”
