Pigeon Attic
If you live in an urban area, you’ve seen this image before: pigeons roosting on a ledge, leaving droppings and nest materials in their wake. You need to get rid of them at all costs! The following tactics are not recommended, but if you want to waste your money and time trying to get rid of pigeons, you will want to do the following:
1. Constantly “Shoo” away the pigeons
2. Pay for professional cleanup services (this can get REALLY expensive)
3. Make your own homemade pigeon spikes
4. Use sound repellers or visual scares
Really… do you want to do any of the above? Try this:
The best way to stop birds from roosting
Simply put, installing bird spikes (“Bird Spikes”) will be the best solution to your problem. 99.9% of the time, birds will stop roosting if spike strips are installed. Imagine yourself trying to rest on a bed of nails. Just the thought illicits thoughts of discomfort and pain. Just like us, birds are aware that sharp objects are painful, and avoid landing and roosting on the bird spikes as they would avoid any other source of pain.
Why use Bird Spikes
Spike strips provide a physical barrier that make it physically more difficult for birds to occupy the area. Sound repellers and visual devices provide no such coverage, as they are only sensory irritants. If birds need food or shelter bad enough, they will overcome such obstacles easily. Bird Spikes go beyond sensory irritation and provide a more effect coverage by directly excluding birds from areas.
Do I Need Bird Spikes?
You need to install bird spikes when:
Birds are roosting in an undesired location
Birds are causing health risks
Acidic droppings and messes from birds are causing damage
You have an are where droppings are causing visual/aesthetic problems
Birds are roosting in an area that humans also occupy
