FAQs
Are these spikes harmful to birds?
No, the spikes are designed specifically to be humane, acting as a deterrent to make landing uncomfortable without causing injury.
Can these be installed on curved surfaces?
While best suited for flat surfaces, the flexible base may accommodate slight curves, though you should ensure the adhesive or fasteners provide a secure fit.
How long does each spike strip measure?
Each strip in the pack measures 45cm in length.
What is the best way to attach these to a wooden fence?
Screws are typically the most secure method for wooden surfaces, though outdoor-rated adhesive can work if the wood is sealed and dry.
Will these rust over time?
The spikes are designed for outdoor use and are constructed to be weather-resistant, though standard maintenance is recommended in harsh environments.
Troubleshooting
Birds are still landing on the spikes
Check for gaps between spike units where birds may be finding footing, or clear away heavy debris accumulated on top of the spikes.
Spikes are becoming loose over time
Re-apply outdoor-rated adhesive or add extra mechanical fasteners such as screws to ensure the base remains flush with the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure the intended surface is clean, dry, and free of existing bird debris or dust to guarantee strong adhesion. Depending on the surface material, you can secure the spikes using adhesive, screws, or cable ties. Always measure your target area before beginning installation to ensure the 12-pack provides sufficient length. For ongoing maintenance, periodically check that the spikes remain firmly attached and clear of any heavy debris or fallen leaves that might create a bridge over the spikes, which could allow birds to land on top of the deterrent.
