How to Keep Birds Away from Roofs and Gutters with Anti Bird Spikes

Posted on May 6, 2014 by Alex Kecskes in Bird Spikes

If you own commercial property, you know that pest birds can be a problem. When they gather on rooflines, they can damage roofs by dislodging roofing tiles. This can eventually lead to roof leaks. And as you may have painfully discovered in the past, roofs are expensive to repair. The same holds true when bird pests nest in your buildings rain gutters. The nests clog these gutters, causing rainwater to dam up and seep under roofing tiles, and you're once again stuck with costly roofing repair bills. What you need to prevent these problems are anti bird spikes. And the sooner you install these bird deterrents, the better. Here's what the bird control experts at Bird-B-Gone recommend:
