Bird Deterrent Spikes Create an Effective Bird Barrier

If you own or manage a commercial building, you know that pest birds can be a problem. Pigeons and other bird pests? often gather to perch and roost on ledges, signage and parapet walls. The result is an unsightly mess in bird droppings, debris and nesting materials that your maintenance crew must clean up--padding to your overall cost. If you ignore the problem, birds will return in greater numbers, attracted by the scent of bird droppings and nesting materials. The solution? Bird deterrent spikes.
