About this deal

If soiled with droppings, we would always recommend dampening down the area with a disinfectant spray like Germ Clear™ Bird Droppings Disinfectant Spray. Once this has been left to soak into the droppings, you can use a scraper, stiff brush, warm soapy water and a cloth to make sure the roof apex is clean and dry. Ideally leave the area for 24 hours to ensure it is fully dry. Long Life ExpectancyThe Defender® Thistle® is made from a UV Stabilised Polycarbonate plastic. This means it will not discolour or go brittle in direct sunlight. In fact, it comes with a 15 year warranty when installed in the UK. There are many scenarios where birds can cause problems, such as roosting on chimney pots, nesting under solar panels and sitting in gutters. We have a solution for all these issues and have created a visual guide to help you understand which products can be used where - this can be viewed here Not Sure What to Buy?. Step 1 - Clean the Area: It is essential to thoroughly clean and dry the area before starting installation. Dampen down the area with a disinfectant spray like Germ Clear™ Bird Droppings Disinfectant Spray and remove any loose droppings or debris. If a pigeon has already been using the area it may be heavily soiled with bird droppings. If this is the case please see our "How to safely clean bird droppings guide" guide for more in-depth cleaning advice.

The Defender® Pipe Spike can protect all kinds of pipes for example drainage pipes, heating, air-conditioning and even pipes covered with lagging. The cable tie will wrap around any pipe with a diameter of up to 125 mm or 5 inches. Although the installation of our Defender® Roof Spikes is easy, as you simply apply fixing silicone to the base and pressing down into position, the nature of the product means that access can be difficult. If you are at all worried about using ladders or gaining access to high areas like the roof, we would really recommend talking to a professional pest controller or property maintenance company.Defender® Pipe Spikes are the best way to keep pigeons off pipes around your home. These pigeon prevention spikes will stop pigeons and similar-sized birds from landing on any kind of pipe. The pigeon control spikes come ready to install and require no extra fixings or glue - you simply tighten the non-slip cable ties around the area of piping which needs protecting. Where should I use Defender® Pipe Spike? Due to the nature of bird control issues, the areas needing to be proofed will often be high up on your property and hard to access. If you intend to do the bird-proofing yourself, you must be confident using ladders and working at height. If you cannot do the work yourself, please get in touch with a roofer, pest control company or handyman to assist you.

Defender® Seagull Spikes will get rid of seagulls from a ledge up to 20 cm (8 inches). If the ledge is wider, you can add a second row of spikes, leaving as small a gap as possible between the tops of the pins. If the seagulls are trying to nest in or on your chimney, it is important to stop them before they begin to nest. The nesting debris the seagulls use to build a nest can cause fires if the chimney is operational. In this instance we would recommend Defender® Chimney Pot Spikes. How do seagull spikes work? All our Defender® Bird Spikes have snappable sections along the base and can easily be snapped using your fingers into smaller pieces. This helps when you finish a row or need to spike smaller or uneven areas.

Step 3 - Positioning: Start at one end of the guttering and clip each piece firmly into position. Continue along the guttering making sure no gap is left between the ends of the pigeon spikes. This mechanism places the gutter strip in the centre of the gutter. It hovers above the base of the gutter, allowing for the free flow of rainwater beneath.

Pigeons love to perch on areas that are high up on buildings to view the surrounding areas. Pipes such as water waste pipes, overflow, electrical conduits and gas line pipes are great examples of where pigeons perch on the outside of domestic and business premises. Installing Defender® Pipe Spikes will instantly stop the pigeons from being able to land and cause any further damage or mess.All Defender® Bird and Pigeon Spikes are made in the UK.

It can be used anywhere on your home or business to stop pigeons from landing on walls, rafters, and window sills. If the ledge is wider than 15 cm, we would recommend using our Extra Wide Stainless Steel Bird Spikes, which are able to protect a ledge of up to 22.5 cm (9 inches) - Defender® Extra Wide Bird Spikes How do wide steel spikes stop pigeons nesting? The gutter spike has 2 clips attached that just slip over the edge of the guttering. This mechanism places the gutter strip in the centre of the gutter. However, as it "hovers" above the base of the gutter, it allows for the free flow of rainwater beneath. The Defender® Narrow Stainless Steel bird spike is designed for pigeons. It can be used in areas where a pigeon is perching or roosting. However, if it is an overnight nesting or roosting area, a wider spike with more pins may be more appropriate.

The 8 mm wide base can easily be fixed to most surfaces using our Defender® Fixing Silicone Adhesive Glue or small screws or even cable ties. If the ledge width is 7.5 cm or more, simply attach a second row of spikes leaving as small a gap as possible between the tops of the pins.
