Product Overview

The Bird - Flite Wide Spikes Kit With Bond is a popular and least conspicuous bird spike product on the market. It is perfect if you have problems with large birds like pigeons, gulls and others that can leave messy droppings and debris on your building. It is good for all pressure levels (perfect for medium to heavy bird pressure) and perfect to put on architectural ledges, chimneys, pipes, signs, street lights, small equipments, steel beams, roof peaks and even on boats.

This bird deterrent will not harm the bird's feet but will alarm them whenever they try to rest on the ledges. It is made of stainless steel and polycarbonate material that is built to last, and doesn’t brittle in age. It is very flexible and it is light enough to carry around for installation. Though the spike is made of stainless steel, like other Bird Barrier spikes, this product literally disappears from a distance. This is an easy-to-install bird deterrent and you can easily store other spikes that are not in use in a small space.

Bird-Flite comes with a plastic base with stainless steel spikes.

Bird-Flite - Bird Spikes - Wide has a length 12", Width 5", and is made for ledges 4-7”.

Wide wires are spaced 1.5 inches on center—far enough apart to repel pigeons, yet avoid entrapping debris, like paper, twigs, etc.

Wide spikes are blunted, preventing injury to birds or unsuspecting workmen. Birds typically hover above products before loafing so they will not be harmed.

This wide version is 5 inches wide by 1 foot long and comes in 4 different kit options:

  • 5 Feet Kit with Bond Glue (5 x 1 foot length with 1 oz of bond glue)
  • 10 Feet Kit with Bond Glue (10 x 1 foot length with 3 oz of bond glue)
  • 25 Feet Kit with Bond Glue (25 x 1 foot length with 10.2 oz of bond glue)
  • 100 Feet Kit with Bond Glue (100 x 1 foot length with three (3) 10.2 oz of bond glue)

Bird-Flite also comes in Narrow and Extra-Wide options.

Details

Roosting birds not only litter your property with debris and droppings but attract other pests and insects as well. The most effective way to prevent bird damage is to deter them from landing on your property in the first place. Bird prevention spikes are Bird Barrier's most popular product for bird control. Bird Barrier bird spikes are discreet, humane and effective deterrents that create a barrier against birds seeking a place to perch or roost.

Durable Designs

Constructed with stainless steel rods set on a UV-resistant polycarbonate base, these bird spikes provide a durable and versatile solution for invasive birds. Bird Barrier's easy-to-install spikes can be attached with nails, screws or adhesive. From bird spikes for small birds to pigeon spikes that deter gulls and blackbirds as well, an array of sizes ensures that you'll find solutions for every type of bird. Bird Barrier's bird control spikes feature sleek, innovative designs that makes them virtually disappear from distances as near as 20 feet.

Versatile Applications

Whether installed on roof parapets, window sills, ledges, signs or chimneys, their flexible bird control spikes conform to the shape of your application. Spikes are shipped in space-saving cases that contain rolled up cylinders of spike strips for easy application. Each section can be cut to accommodate any architectural size, shape and configuration. Bird Barrier offer spikes specifically designed for gutters as well, with detachable, clip-on installation for easy application and cleaning.

Unlike some bird prevention spikes in the market, their bird control spikes are blunted to prevent injury to birds yet are strong enough not to bend under pressure. Whether you need a short length of narrow bird spikes for small birds or a 100-foot length of pigeon spikes that can deter an entire flock, you can rest assured that you'll resolve your bird infestation problem without causing harm to nuisance birds.

Installation

When installing Bird-Flite to a ledge, beam or pipe, keep two things in mind for a successful application:

  • Proper placement of the product on the ledge
  • Securely fastening the product to the ledge

Product Placement

One of the great benefits of Bird-Flite is that you can leave unprotected space between rows of the product, and between the back row and wall.

Tips can be placed up to 2” apart, and the tips of the rods can be up to 2” from the back wall – that’s free coverage! The rods must overhang the outer edge by at least 1/2”.

Examples: Bird-Flite Wide can be used to protect a one-sided ledge up to seven inches wide.

A 12 inch ledge (one-sided) can be protected with two rows of Bird-Flite Wide.

Fastening

Bird-Flite can be glued or screwed to the ledge. If screwing we recommend three screws per foot. But using Bird Barrier Bond is by far the preferable technique; it is far faster, and actually more secure, as the entire strip is fastened securely to the ledge.

Using Bird Barrier Bond

The one-foot section of Bird-Flite should receive four to five equally spaced marble-sized dabs. You do not want to run a continuous bead as you will create a water barrier. Apply the four to five dabs per foot. Then simply place the strip in the correct position and press firmly to the ledge. You want the Bond to come out the sides and squirt up through the screw holes.

Bond Coverage using Bird Barrier Bond

10.2 oz cartridge = 30-35 feet. 3.75 oz tube = 12 feet

Using Self-Tapping Screws

Bird-Flite can be installed using small self-tapping screws. We recommend two to three screws per foot, not one screw per hole. If you are using a drill motor, you should obtain a long 1/4” magnetic nut driver (at least 5” long). Make sure you don’t keep the drill motor running when the screw seats down on the plastic or you will strip out the hole or break the Bird-Flite base.

Installation Time Estimate

One to two feet per minute depending upon access

    Great Stuff!

    By Patty on 03/07/2017

    We like this product--it is nearly invisible, unless you look up and know what you are looking for! Especially important where there is an HOA! Easy to break off sections to fit any space. The adhesive covers more area than we expected it to. Highly recommend this before nesting season!

Q
Just to be sure, can I bond these Bird - Flite Wide Spikes Kit With Bond on WOOD beams on my deck? The wood beams will be very clean. Just wanted to make sure.

Thank you in advance for your professional advice.

A

Bird Barrier's easy-to-install Bird - Flite Wide Spikes With Bond can be attached with nails, screws or adhesive. If the wood on the deck has been treated with any type of petroleum product we would suggest that you use both the adhesive and 2 screws for every 3 ft of barrier.  The wood needs to be clean and dry.
