E komo mai! Im a student at UHM studying bananas and tropical agriculture in general.

Do you currently bag your bunches? If not, then it may be all that is necessary to prevent the birds from getting them. You could probably just use some thick clear trash bags, cut the bottoms off so its like a sleeve, slip it over the bunch and tie them off around the top leaving the bottom open a little past the end of the bunch.
