One of the most effective pigeon deterrents is the implementation of pigeon spikes<\/strong> to ensure that they are unable to land in the areas they can cause the most damage.<\/p>\n

Adaptable Prevention Methods<\/h2>\n

General bird spikes are available in the form of adaptable strips that are cut down to the appropriate size and fitted to external perching locations. They can be easily fitted to \u00a0a huge range of surface areas including windowsills, ledges, roof edges and more, and can be either glued or nailed into a surface.<\/p>\n

Bird spikes come in a wide range of sizes, depending on what bird they are suited for.<\/p>\n

Pigeon spikes<\/strong>\u00a0are almost identical to bird spikes, with the only\u00a0discernible\u00a0difference being that they have been designed to take the heavier weight of a pigeon, and are therefore designed to be more robust to handle this task.<\/p>\n

Humane Prevention Methods<\/h2>\n

Due to their humane bird control qualities,\u00a0Pigeon spikes<\/strong> are one of the most recommended methods of treatment in regards to pigeon control and have even be endorsed for use by the RSPB.<\/p>\n

At IPM Pest Control, we guarantee fast response times throughout many areas of the South East from our team of highly skilled bird control experts who will quickly ascertain the extent of your problem and then install our highly reliable pigeon spikes<\/strong> wherever necessary.<\/p>\n

Pigeon control deterrent spikes will usually measure approximately 1 foot (30\u00a0cm) long and work by forcing birds to land elsewhere. Because the pigeons will not actually come into contact with the spikes they leave unharmed.\u00a0As a result, the\u00a0Royal Society for the Protection of Birds\u00a0(RSPB) recommends bird control spikes for deterring pigeons from gardens.<\/p>\n

Often described as “the most effective (type of) stand-alone bird deterrent”, pigeon control spikes can be placed along ledges, walls, on top of closed circuit television\u00a0cameras\u00a0and in\u00a0rain gutters, in order to prevent birds from perching on the surfaces.<\/p>\n

Commonly found in city centres\u00a0and coastal areas, where feral birds are more common and more likely to come into conflict with humans, pigeon spikes are becoming an increasingly popular bird control method because of the need to comply with non-lethal bird control methods.<\/p>\n
