BC Bird Spikes 20G are the tallest and most robust in the BC range, designed specifically to prevent gulls and large birds from landing on rooftops, ledges, parapets, and exposed horizontal surfaces. With a spike height of 166mm and a 175mm spread, each strip provides up to 275mm of effective coverage, ideal for areas with severe bird pressure. Made in Britain from 304-grade stainless steel and UV-protected polycarbonate, these stackable spikes combine high performance, long-term durability, and ethical deterrence.
Our bird spike systems align with RSPCA guidance, where anti-perching devices, such as spikes, are considered one of the most humane ways of minimising problems caused by nesting birds, when properly installed and regularly inspected.
Prepare the surface by cleaning and drying it fully. Apply a strong adhesive or screw the strip into the surface depending on the installation type. Each base includes built-in snap points, making it easy to shorten the strip without tools. The stackable design ensures quick, efficient handling on-site.
For installations on gutters, two dedicated fixing clips are available to ensure a secure, professional fit without obstructing water flow.
Lipped Gutter Clips for BC Bird Spikes are designed specifically for lipped gutters, providing a straightforward method of attaching BC Bird Spikes directly to the gutter lip to prevent birds from landing, without blocking drainage or interfering with normal water flow
Gutter Clips for BC Bird Spikes perform the same function for standard gutters, offering a secure fixing solution that keeps spikes firmly in position while allowing water to pass through unobstructed.
Both products are compatible with BC Bird Spikes 14S, 20M, and 20G, making them a practical addition to any gutter bird proofing installation.
BC Bird Spikes 20G is purpose-built for tackling larger birds and heavy infestations on commercial and industrial properties. From warehouse roofs to sea-facing structures and public buildings, this spike delivers high deterrent power in even the most challenging locations. Professionals choose it for its unmatched reach, strength, and humane credentials, plus the added benefit of UK manufacturing and efficient transport thanks to its stackable format.
BC Bird Spikes 20G is built for the most demanding sites, but also helps reduce environmental burden. Its stackable construction means fewer boxes, reduced transport volume, and easier site handling, especially on rooftop jobs where access is limited.
Made in Britain using high-grade, long-lasting components, it’s a durable and sustainable choice for ethical gull control on commercial and coastal buildings.
The 20G is engineered for larger birds and exposed sites. If you’re dealing with pigeons or working in more confined areas, compare the rest of the BC spike range:
