Review: I cannot recommend enough! - I have struggled with pigeons nesting on my solar panels and tried many things to get rid of them but this is the simplest and most effective. Forget the ultrasonic scarers and spikes; this is your answer. I only bought because a friend recommended and was sceptical. I thought I'd try it before committing to getting the big ladder out again so duct taped two 1m lengths to bits I could reach out of the window and just that has been enough to move the birds along and let me sleep again. One piece has blown away but at this price I don't care; if I went up and secured it properly that wouldn't happen. It is a bit noisey as it clatters about on the roof in high winds but the effect on the birds is worth that and easily ignored. It'll move about well in very light winds and is quite sturdy material so should last. Not that that's a concern for the price but if you have it in inaccessible places as I will you would want that. I don't generally directly recommend products but will make an exception - if you want rid of birds, buy this!
Review: Works for a little while - It's an OK product, the ones in the tree seem to work better but on the newly seeded lawn it's a bit useless. It is not self adhesive so stuck mine on with waterproof tape. There is plenty on the roll. It looks pretty and makes a nice noise.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If I were to attach it to mesh overhang(cat protection fencing)to stop birds getting trapped,how long and distance apart would be preferable, thanks.**
A: To E.F.C. It would need to be long enough to move in the air and reflect light. I use about eighteen inches in my fig tree and that seems to keep the birds off. Not sure about the distance apart but would think about three feet (Sorry if you have gone metric!) as the ends would blow to nearly meet then. I hang it quite close on branches on the fig tree. It also makes quite a noise which helps with the scaring! Sorry I can't give you a more definite answer but hope this helps. You have reminded me I must order some more!Ann.

**Q: Is this any good to keep deer away, all the reviews are pigeons**
A: It could be effective with deer as I've  not seen any  here but at least we find the rustling and flashing startles and frightens away most birds.

**Q: Any ideas as to the best way to attach this? It keeps unravelling when tied?**
A: I cut a length of about 20 inches and folded it in two. I wrapped a length of wire round the middle and onto a cane. I Then put the cane in to the soil of a plant pot and sat in next the railing on my decking and for  the last two years I have not had a pigeon sit on it. When the sun shines on the tape it is scary for the birds and when the wind blows the tape rustles together so either way it works.

**Q: does this work to help stop birds flying into and hitting windows ?**
A: Would think not. Brilliant for keeping birds away fron new grass seed and veggies.  Would drive you maddening the flickering colours through the window.  Buy the stick on transfers   I find they work a treat.    Cheers

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Seems to have done the job.
*by E***T on 1 June 2021*

It reflects light as it blows around, and it has worked for my pigeon problem. Have spent 40quid on spikes, 10 quid on an owl, this little item was just what was needed to stop the pigoens nesting in a corner of the roof of the conservatory. And blocking the guttering which cause an overflow, and water damage inside the conservatory. Sadly There is no adhesive on eitherside of the strip hence 1 star.. for that, and lost a star on overall review because the video misrepresents that aspect of the item. I have hung a long strip of it out the bathroom window into the offending corner. I thought the reflective graphic on the double sided strip looked similar to the colouring & irredesance of pigeon markings.. It comes on a roll, so cut to lenghths you want. And made of a waterproof thick material.
