Safety and Personal Protective Equipment 2. Surface Preparation 3. Installation 4. Maintenance 1. Safety and Personal Protective Equipment Always disinfect the working area thoroughly with PX Ornikill (GC079) avian disinfectant if it has been contaminated with bird faeces Wear latex gloves (GC080) when applying silicone Spike adhesive, it is difficult to get off your hands.

2 Wear heavy duty Riggers Gloves (GC082) made from leather or suede when pressing down the spikes into position to avoid injury Wear eye protection Goggles (GC085) if working with spikes at eye level to avoid accidents. Wear a P3 rated face mask when disturbing bird faeces (GC086 or GC093 & GC094) wash hands thoroughly afterwards. Do not install spikes on surfaces less than 2 metres off the ground, birds are highly unlikely to perch this low to the ground and serious injury could occur if someone tripped and fell on to the spikes. Warn your window cleaning company if you are installing spikes on window ledges to avoid injury to them and/or damage occurring to the spikes. Our Spike Installers Kits (BS314) come with everything you will need to undertake a safe and effective Installation . Buy one today and make your Spike Installation run smoothly and safely.

3 Spikes are designed to deter light weight birds of no more than one kilo in weight. Do not use them to prevent human intruders, cats or other animals, as serious injury may occur.

4 Surface Preparation Surface preparation is the key to a successful Installation . Do not lay spikes onto contaminated or unprepared surfaces. Use Surface Cleaner (BS332) to prepare greasy surfaces prior to priming. Use Surface Activator (BS365) to prepare polished surfaces such as metal or plastic prior to priming. Always prime the surface to be adhered to with Silicone Spike Adhesive (BS328) and our Disposable Priming Brush (BS335), regardless of the composition of the surface. This ensures a long life bond. Use masking tape if necessary to avoid priming an area outside of where the Spike base will cover. This will ensure a neat and professional finish. Do not lay spikes on unsound surfaces flaking paint, rusty metal or rotten timber, they will only fall off. Take time to repair these surfaces prior to Installation .

5 Do not fit spikes if heavy rainfall is predicted within 24 hours of Installation . The silicone Spike adhesive will take 24 hours to cure. On long straight runs of spikes, particularly those being overlooked from windows above, make sure that you set out a centre line for each row of spikes before gluing them down to ensure that the spikes are laid straight to give a neat and professional finish. 3.
