Overview
Birds can be beautiful creatures to watch, but they can also cause problems when they start to invade our properties and buildings. They can cause damage to property, create unsanitary conditions, and pose health hazards. Fortunately, there are a number of effective bird control devices available on the market today. In this article, we’ll take a look at some of the most popular ones: stainless steel wires, porcupine wire strips, mesh, and track systems.
Stainless Steel Wires
Stainless steel wires are a popular bird control device that are used to prevent birds from perching and nesting on buildings, signs, and other structures. These wires are installed in a series of parallel lines that are spaced just a few inches apart. Birds are discouraged from landing on these wires because they are unstable and uncomfortable for their feet.
Stainless steel wires are effective for a number of reasons. They are virtually invisible from a distance, so they won’t detract from the appearance of a building. They are also long-lasting, durable, and weather-resistant, so they can withstand the elements without corroding or rusting.
Porcupine Wire Strips
Porcupine wire strips are another popular bird control device that are used to keep birds from landing and roosting on buildings and other structures. These strips are made from a series of pointed, upward-facing wires that are attached to a base. When birds try to land on these strips, they are met with a prickly barrier that discourages them from staying.
Porcupine wire strips are effective because they are difficult for birds to get past. They are also very durable and long-lasting, so they can provide effective bird control for many years.
Mesh
Mesh is another popular bird control device that is used to prevent birds from entering buildings and other structures. This material is typically made from a series of small holes that are spaced just a few millimeters apart. Birds are unable to get through these holes, so they are prevented from entering the area.
Mesh is an effective bird control device because it is versatile and easy to install. It can be used to cover openings of any size, and it can be attached to virtually any surface. It is also long-lasting and durable, so it can provide effective bird control for many years.
Track Systems
Track systems are a more advanced bird control device that is designed to prevent birds from landing and roosting on buildings and other structures. These systems are made up of a series of metal tracks that are attached to a base. The tracks are slightly angled, so birds are unable to get a solid footing on them.
Track systems are effective because they provide a physical barrier that birds cannot get past. They are also very durable and long-lasting, so they can provide effective bird control for many years.
There are many effective bird control devices available on the market today. Stainless steel wires, porcupine wire strips, mesh, and track systems are all popular options that can be used to prevent birds from perching, nesting, and entering buildings and other structures. If you’re dealing with a bird control problem, consider one of these devices to help keep your property bird-free.
