Surface Preparation
The first step prior to installing bird spikes is to clean and dry the area where bird spikes will be installed. Due to the infectious diseases associated with bird feces and debris, be sure to use extreme care when removing nests and bird droppings. Visit Bird Control Safety for additional information on how to safely clean up bird droppings and disinfect the area prior to installation.
Adhesion
Surface should be clean and dry before installation. Select width of bird spike based on surface to be covered. For permanent placement, glue, screw, or tie down bird spike strips in conjunction with an outdoor construction grade adhesive. Stainless steel bird spike rods should overhang the outer edge by a minimum of 1/2". Stainless steel bird spike rods should be no more than 1" from the back wall to prevent smaller birds from landing between the bird spikes and the back wall. Wider ledges may require multiple rows of pigeon spike strips. Install bird spike strips with 1" overlap.
- Secure pigeon spikes with proper screws and adhesive.
- Wood surface area: bird spikes can be secured with wood screws
- Concrete, brick, or steel surface areas - use outdoor construction adhesive
- One caulking tube of adhesive should cover approximately 20 ft of pigeon spike installation
- Whenever possible, we suggest screwing or bolting down bird spikes in conjunction with the use of an outdoor construction adhesive
