An ultrasonic anti-fouling device 100 comprises an ultrasonic transducer unit 20, fitted to a transducer mount 10. The transducer mount is secured to a surface 1 of an article to be protected 2. The transducer unit emits ultrasonic pulses into the surface. This can efficiently inhibit prevent the growth of algae and other contaminants if the surface is immersed in water for an extended period. Typically, the surface 1 might be the hull of a boat, ship or other such vessel. A layer of adhesive tape 14 is used to secure the transducer mount to the surface. A method of mounting an ultrasonic anti-fouling device with adhesive tape is also disclosed.
