4. Operating Principles and Application

AOKKR Bird Spikes work by creating an uneven, uncomfortable surface that prevents birds and small animals from landing or roosting. This humane method encourages them to find alternative, more suitable locations.

4.1 Effective Deterrence

Once installed, the spikes act as a physical barrier. Birds will avoid areas protected by the spikes, leading to a significant reduction in droppings, nesting, and associated damage.

• Roofs and rooflines
• Window sills and ledges

Due to their durable SUS304 stainless steel construction, AOKKR Bird Spikes require minimal maintenance. They are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions without rusting or degrading.

• Periodisk eftersyn: Occasionally check the spikes for any accumulated debris (leaves, twigs) that might reduce their effectiveness. Clear any obstructions as needed.
• Rensning: If necessary, clean the spikes with water and a mild detergent to remove any dirt or bird droppings. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface.

• Spike Density: Verify that the spike span is adjusted appropriately for the size of the birds you are deterring. For very small birds, a denser arrangement might be needed.
• Forhindringer: Look for any objects (e.g., branches, wires) that birds might be using to bypass the spikes. Remove or protect these alternative perching spots.

6.2 Spikes Becoming Loose

• Re-secure: If using screws, tighten them. If using adhesive, reapply a strong outdoor adhesive. If using cable ties, replace or tighten them.
• Overfladekompatibilitet: Ensure the chosen mounting method is suitable for the surface material. Some surfaces may require specific fasteners or adhesives.
