Why Pest Birds Hate Plastic Bird Spikes
Pest birds can present a costly, annoying problem. To get rid of birds can be equally problematic. Unfortunately, there are all manner of homegrown bird control remedies out there--everything from ultrasonic devices to propane cannons. The former cant be heard by your average bird, the latter will shatter windows and eardrums. Neither is effective in the long run. The point is, unless you use a proven bird deterrent, something that birds hate, you'll be inundated with the bothersome critters, their nests and droppings.
Creating a No-Landing Zone
Bird spikes are among the most effective and humane bird deterrents ever devised. Reason: they create an anti-perching, anti-roosting area that won't allow birds (especially larger birds) to land on or near them. Try as they may to negotiate a landing, they'll never succeed. After a few tries, even the most stubborn bird will give up and move on. The spiked strips are there 24/7, so birds returning later for a subsequent try will fail. Birds hate that.

The plastic bird spikes offered by Bird B Gone are specially designed not to harm birds, curious pets, or the people who install them.

Which Size Bird Spike?
