Bird Barrier America is the leader in modern bird mitigation, offering pest bird solutions for buildings and homes. The company has been providing products to stop birds since 1993, with their products installed on thousands of buildings and homes across North America and beyond.

Bird Barrier's products are made from high-quality, long-lasting materials designed to blend in with the building, ensuring they don't create an eyesore. The products are humane, with the sole purpose of making birds feel unwelcome and take their mess elsewhere. They work effectively on a variety of pest birds, including Sparrows, Pigeons, Starlings, Corvids, Gulls, and more.

The flagship product, Optical Gel, is an innovative bird deterrent that combines multi-sensory methods to keep birds away. It is designed to interfere with three key sensory deterrents of birds: Primarily, the unique surface pattern reflects UV light, triggering the bird's instinctive fear response and confusing them. It also contains a strong scent to mask the pheromones that draw birds back to the same location. Lastly, if a bird actually touches the gel, it is sticky, which is a powerful deterrent in itself.

The Optical Gel is easy to install, requiring no tools and just a small dab of silicone to secure it to the surface. However, it is crucial to properly pre-treat the area by removing all traces of bird pheromones, nests, and residue using a cleaner specifically designed for bird droppings, such as Bird Barrier Dissolve-It, followed by a 10% diluted bleach mixture to sanitize the area.

The Optical Gel is designed to withstand a wide range of weather conditions, including cold temperatures, heat up to 158°F, rain, sleet, hail, and freezing ice and snow. While the discs may turn darker over time, this does not affect their effectiveness. Any damaged discs or areas showing bird activity should be replaced.

It is important to note that Optical Gel is intended for use on birds only and should not be used for other pests, as that would be illegal. Additionally, while it is effective on common pest birds like pigeons, sparrows, and starlings, it cannot be used on native bird species during their reproductive cycle, as that would interfere with their protected status.

Overall, Bird Barrier's Optical Gel provides a practical and humane solution for keeping nasty birds from causing damage to homes and buildings, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of bird-related issues.
