Bird Proofing with Stainless Steel Bird Spikes
Bird spikes are one of the easiest bird proofing products to install and when made from stainless steel, mounted into a polycarbonate
base, they are one of the more durable methods too.
These spikes interfere with the birds ability to land (without causing them any injury) and depending upon which model, will deter birds from perching, roosting or even nesting on various types of structures.
There are two brands of stainless steel bird spikes available:
|
|
PAA Range - Stainless Steel Bird Spikes |
| Pest-Away Australia has our own brand of stainless steel bird spikes that combines the durability of stainless steel with the flexibility of polycarbonate in a cost-effective way. |
PAA R24 Model - For Pigeons
This model has 'pressed in' spikes which means that the spike base will need to be flush mounted to a flat surface of at least 60mm.
So the PAA R24 is not suitable for piping or conduit. You would use the AVIPOINT P20 model instead.
The PAA R24 will protect an area that is from 160mm and possibly as much as 270mm on certain areas (such as a parapet).
The PAA R24 is superior to the AVIPOINT P20 model in spike
density, protection area, spike strength, marine grade stainless steel and price.
We recommend using a neutral base adhesive for fixing the
spikes - Such as AVISIL or AVIFIX.

PAA S30 - Swallow Spikes:
The PAA S30 model has been specifically designed to deter smaller birds such as swallows or sparrows. The density of the spike pattern (with its unique 3-2-3 design) is one of the highest you will find on the market.
The spikes themselves are uniquely retained into the UV-Stabilised polycarbonate base for added durability.
Whilst the PAA S30 is designed for small birds, it will still proof against small-medium sized birds such as: starlings, blackbirds, Indian mynas and the like.
[For larger birds like pigeons or seagulls, you should consider the PAA
R24 model]
The spike pattern will protect an area that is up to 200mm wide.
The spikes can be fixed down with special neutral based flexible adhesives such as AVISIL or AVIFIX - sold separately. |
