Pigeon spikes are a row of small diameter, lengthy stainless steel or plastic spikes attached to a long strip of plastic that can be attached to windowsills and ledges around your business or home. These spikes are placed together so densely along the strip that birds cannot land between them comfortably, deterring them from landing on the property. Instead of perching on the building, the pigeons are forced to find trees and other natural perches instead.
Pigeon spikes are thin and lightweight, making them virtually invisible once installed. Installation is completed by gluing the strips onto the appropriate areas with a high strength bonding material. The simple construction of the strips and basic installation process ensures that the pigeon spikes will not detract from the appearance of the buildings or draw the eye away from the architecture.
Pigeon spikes also improve the appearance of the building by reducing the amount of bird waste adorning the building from birds that land to rest and those that choose to nest on the property. Bird waste is a well-known health hazard that may contain a multitude of harmful agents that cause health issues for anyone that comes into contact with the waste. Preventing bird waste accumulation around human habitations reduces the health risks that may result from bird waste exposure.
Pigeons and other birds that attempt to land between the spikes are not harmed or injured by the spikes. The strength of the spikes ensures that they will not bend or break under the weight of the bird and the ends are rounded to prevent punctures or other piercing injuries. The spikes merely make the ledge an uncomfortable perch and create difficulties for the birds when they attempt to extend their wings. This provides a perfectly humane and maintenance free solution for pigeon pest control.
Pigeon spikes can be used for pigeon pest control in a wide variety of locations. The most common uses are along roof trusses, window ledges, and awnings of buildings to protect homes and businesses from roosting and nesting birds. Pigeon spikes may also be placed along fences, signs, railings, or any other flat surface that would be an attractive perch for a bird. Pigeon spikes are available in various lengths and widths to accommodate the many different areas where they can be effectively used.
