1. What types of birds do these spikes deter?
The spikes are effective against common pest birds such as pigeons, seagulls, starlings, and sparrows. They work by preventing birds from landing and roosting, rather than harming them.
2. How do I install the bird spikes?
The flexible plastic base can be secured using adhesive glue, screws, or cable ties depending on your surface. Simply clean the surface, apply your chosen fixing method, and press the strip firmly into place.
3. Can the base be bent to fit curved surfaces?
Yes. The plastic base is flexible, allowing it to conform to curved surfaces such as pipes, rounded ledges, and arched signs.
4. How many strips do I need to cover my area?
Each strip covers 50cm. Measure the total length of the surface you want to protect and divide by 0.5m to calculate the number of strips required.
5. Are these spikes safe for birds?
Yes. The spikes are designed to deter, not harm. They create an uncomfortable landing surface that encourages birds to find alternative perching spots.
6. Will the stainless steel rust outdoors?
No. The spikes are made from 304 stainless steel, which is highly corrosion-resistant and suitable for long-term outdoor exposure including coastal and high-humidity environments.
7. Can these be installed on a roof?
Yes. They are suitable for roof edges, ridgelines, gutters, and similar surfaces where birds commonly roost.
8. Do the spikes require any maintenance?
Minimal maintenance is needed. Occasional rinsing to remove debris or bird droppings is all that's typically required to keep the strips effective.
9. How many spikes does each strip have?
Each 50cm strip features 20 stainless steel spikes arranged in a staggered pattern to maximise surface coverage.
10. What is the weight of each strip?
Each strip weighs approximately 0.1kg, making it lightweight and easy to handle during installation.
