Pigeon spikes for effective bird control
Urban environments are magnets for pest birds such as pigeons, seagulls, and crows. These birds often roost on ledges, rooftops, signage, and other building structures.
Pigeon spikes are a versatile bird deterrent system designed to provide long-lasting and effective control of problem urban birds. The spikes create a physical barrier that prevents birds from landing or roosting on various surfaces. The upward-pointing wires—commonly referred to as “spikes”—discourage birds from perching by reducing the available landing space.
Key Features of pigeon spikes
Effective Bird Control: Birds cannot land on surfaces where the spikes are installed. The spikes respect wildlife while keeping your property safe from damage.
Versatile Application: Anti-bird spikes are incredibly versatile and can be installed in virtually any area where birds pose a problem. Whether it’s building ledges, rooftops, street lighting, signage, or even gutters, the spikes can be used to deter birds from perching or roosting. The spikes can be installed even on irregular surfaces.
Durability and longevity: Made from stainless steel, these pigeon spikes are designed to last. The spikes won’t rust, bend, or corrode even under harsh weather conditions. The UV-protected polycarbonate base ensures that the spikes remain securely in place.
Stainless steel spikes provide a maintenance-free solution that will save you money in the long run. Their durability means you won’t have to worry about frequent replacements.
Discreet: Stainless steel spikes have a low profile and are hardly visible from ground level. The translucent polycarbonate base blends well with most building surfaces, making the spikes virtually invisible from a distance. This ensures that while your building is protected from birds, its aesthetic appeal remains intact.
Easy installation: Installation of pigeon spikes couldn’t be simpler. They can be attached quickly using adhesive, nails, or screws, depending on the surface. The polycarbonate base is flexible, allowing the spikes to be mounted on flat, curved, or irregular surfaces with ease. This flexibility ensures that no matter where you need to install them, these spikes will adapt to fit the space.
Environmentally Friendly: Pigeon spikes prevent birds from landing without causing injury. This makes them a perfect choice for anyone looking to implement a responsible, ethical bird control solution.
