Hollow Plastic Ball Covers for Airport Deicing Ponds

The challenge

  • Waterfowl attraction near runways (wildlife-strike risk)
  • Odor from glycol-laden deicing runoff
  • Algae in open stormwater basins
  • Regulatory scrutiny of open water near airfields

How Armor Ball® helps

A covered surface deters the waterfowl and wildlife that open deicing and stormwater ponds attract — a concern wherever FAA wildlife-hazard guidance applies — while suppressing odor and limiting algae. Armor Ball® installs without draining and adapts to changing water levels.

Outcomes

Deterred waterfowl and wildlife near airfields
Suppressed odor from deicing runoff
Reduced algae in open basins
Tool-free install around active operations

FAQ

Airports & Deicing Ponds — questions answered

Do ball covers help with airport wildlife-hazard management?

A dense floating ball cover removes the open-water surface that attracts waterfowl, helping deter the wildlife that creates strike hazards near runways. Coordinate any airport application with your wildlife-hazard management plan and FAA guidance.
