Applications
Use on all types of surfaces to hinder light roosting of pigeons and seagulls. For pigeons and seagulls only, not recommended for other birds or for controlling heavy infestations of any bird. To control all birds on all types of surfaces, use Nixalite's Premium Bird Barrier Strips.

Basic Installation Instructions: For detailed instructions download the Pigeon Spike Brochure.

Prepare the surface: Clean the surface thoroughly. It must be clean, dry and free of any bird waste. Repair any damage there might be to the installation surface.
Layout the spike positions: Using the Pigeon Spike Estimating and Spacing Guidelines, mark where the center of each spike row will be placed.
Fit it first, then fasten it: Make sure each piece fits the surface before installing. Find the Quick-Part seam that is just longer than the desired length. Gently bend the base up and down at the Quick-Part seam until it parts.
Overhang the first spike at least ½” at the end of a surface. Adjust length if needed to ensure this overhang.
For best results cut off the excess plastic base flush to the 1st spike overhanging the edge.
When butting the strips end-to-end, use the alignment notch at each end of the base. Do not allow gaps between strips or between a strip and object.
 
Fastening Pigeon Spikes
If fastening with adhesive, follow the manufacturers instructions printed on the adhesive container.
If installing with the optional Nixalite hardware (screws ordered separately), contact Nixalite with any questions.

Periodic inspections are recommended to keep the bird spikes clean and free of any debris.
C.  Occasionally, debris may fall onto the wires or birds may drop materials into the wires in an attempt to build a nest. If this happens, begin a monthly inspection of the system to remove any debris and to check the condition of the installed bird spike strips.
D.  Due to the plastic construction of the Pigeon Spike Plastic Narrow bird spikes, the sun (ultraviolet radiation) can deteriorate the spikes over time. Periodic inspection can determine if the spikes have become brittle and need to be replaced. For long lasting control with all stainless steel spikes, contact the manufacturer for recommendations.
