ABSTRACT:
A dominator wire comprises a plurality of braided strands forming a continous wire. Each separate strand is supplied with an electrical current that is different than the electrical current that is supplied to each of the other strands. A plurality of insulating disks are disposed in spaced relationship a predetermined distance apart along the length of the wire creating discrete wire segments. The spaced distance is selected so that a bird that lands on the wire cannot put both of its feet on the wire between the same two insulating disks. Each wire segment has a single exposed metal conductor segment. When the bird alights on the wire, each foot will contact a different metal conductor segment thereby causing a current to flow through the body of the bird causing the bird to be stunned or killed.
