Bird Spikes: Polycarbonate Strip or SS 304

Polycarbonate spikes suit ledges, AC units and signage. SS 304 is the outdoor strip you want to leave in place for years. Bird net is a third product.

Key takeaways
  • Polycarbonate is the light UV plastic strip.
  • SS 304 is the stainless strip for a long outdoor life.
  • Say the run length and what it is fixed to.
  • A net over a balcony is bird net, not a spike.

Spikes keep birds off a ledge. They do not close a balcony the way a net does. Pick the strip by how long it has to sit outside, then measure the run.

Polycarbonate

The plastic strip is UV polycarbonate. It is the one for ledges, AC outdoor units, signage and parapets, where weight matters and the run is a series of short lengths. Confirm the strip length and the surface it will be fixed to.

SS 304

Stainless 304 is the strip for a rooftop, shed or ledge that should still be there after several seasons. It costs more than the plastic and it is the correct spend when the plastic has already been replaced once.

Monkey spikes are a heavier polycarbonate strip, listed separately. Bird net, in white, green or blue, is what you order when the opening itself has to be closed. Sector 9, Noida. 9910238277.
