How to Use

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.

Recommended Accessories: Gutter Fixing Clips

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.

FAQs

What birds are BC Gull spikes designed to deter?

Primarily seagulls and other large pest birds. Their extra height and reach make them unsuitable for smaller birds but highly effective against gulls.

Where should I install this model?

Perfect for rooftops, wide parapets, gutters, and high-pressure gull landing zones, especially on coastal or urban buildings.

Is the spike height necessary for gulls?

Yes. Gulls are tall, heavy birds with long legs, lower spikes are often ignored. The 20G’s height and density create an effective barrier they can’t bypass.

Is this model RSPCA approved?

Yes. All BC Bird Spikes, including the 20G, are endorsed by the RSPCA as humane bird deterrents.

Will they survive high winds and salt exposure?

Absolutely. Made with 304-grade stainless steel and UV-resistant polycarbonate, they’re designed for extreme weather and coastal conditions.

Can I install these alone, or do I need a team?

One trained technician can install the strips using adhesive or clips. The stackable design speeds up transport and installation.

Is it possible to adjust the length of the spike strip?

Yes, the strip can be shortened easily using the built-in snap lines in the base, allowing for precise fitting in tight or awkward spaces.
