Bell Towers or Domes
— Cover the bell with multiple
strips of Stainless SPIKES radiating outward and
downward from the highest point of the dome.
Statues, Columns, Cornices
— Apply to base, and
around head, arms, curves, crevices and openings.
Roofs
— Apply to roof perimeter, chimney, antennae,
and the ridge on a gabled roof. Apply
to the inside of a
chimney (projections facing inward) to keep animals out.
Cables
— Apply to any cable thick enough to support a
bird (this is easy since base is 0.8" wide.)
Trees
— Apply to tops of branches to stop birds. Apply
in horizontal rings around a tree trunk, starting 4' from
the ground, then higher at 5" intervals to stop climbing
animals (use a similar defense for Bird Baths and Bird
Feeders.)
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Every bird infestation is a unique challenge, as numerous
variables are involved. Besides obvious differences (bird
type, infestation size, structure type and physical location…),

“rules”. Here are suggestions to maximize effectiveness, but
experimentation is often required. Birds are creatures of

they will seek alternate areas. Therefore, make sure

checked that no flaw exists in the application. If so, birds may find it and infest, and you may need to amend the application.
SYNERGY
You may find certain areas where it is undesirable or impractical to install spikes. If this is the case, we suggest that you protect these
untreated areas generally by using other products (visual repellers, sound repellers) in conjunction with the spikes. This will maximize
effectiveness throughout the entire property. Call (312) 226-2473 or visit www.bird-x.com for information on companion products.
