PRODUCT PRESENTATION

Bird Wire from Bird-B-Gone
Bird Wire is a post and wire system that creates an unstable landing area for large pest birds. Birds will not like the unstable landing surface and will move on to find a better perch.

What makes Bird Slope a Superior Anti Perching Device?

  • Low profile bird deterrent
  • Industry leading 5-year guarantee
  • Cost Effective!
  • #1 Bird Wire System Specified by Architects
  • Low maintenance

The Bird Wire system from Bird-B-Gone is a low profile bird deterrent used to keep large birds off ledges, parapet walls, rooflines, handrails and more.

USES and APPLICATIONS

Specify Bird Wire to:
  • Prevent large pest birds from landing
  • Ideal for high traffic areas
  • Keep job costs down
  • Discreetly deterring pest birds
  • Keep large birds off of window sills, parapet walls, railing and rooflines

Bird Wire consists of a nylon-coated stainless steel wire that is suspended between a series of poles. The wire is attached to springs, when birds land on the wire; the springs make an unstable landing surface. When birds go to land on the wire, the unique spring wire system will create a sensation of instability, causing the birds to move on to a more comfortable landing space. Bird Wire from Bird-B-Gone is offered with a complete line of installation hardware.
