Question 1

I bought this product and used it. It melted within 12 hours and plastic bird spikes came off. Did I do something wrong?

Accepted Answer

Hullo! We are so sorry to hear that you have had an issue with our adhesive. Our Defender Bird Spike Fixing Silicone should have no loss of mechanical structure at 110°C however there is a possibility that installation onto a bituminous surface like roofing felt, could cause a reaction with the tar and this may caused the adhesive to not stick to the surface. We would love to resolve this for you, if you can call us on 01626 835055 we can hopefully ascertain why the product has failed in this instance and find a solution for you.

Question 2

how easy to remove the adhesive - rented accommodation ?

Accepted Answer

I can see the problem. I take it you’ve tried looking Google up? That’s not a joke by the way that’s where I always go first. Is a metal scraper worth a try. I can only think of turpentine or Ice cubes. I know ice takes chewing gum off. Not being much help sorry if it’s on stone ect I would gently use a scraper!!!!!! Good luck.

Question 3

Can it be used to stick the spikes to a shed felt roof?

Accepted Answer

I used the Bird Defender and Pidgeon Spike on my TV aerial works a treat, I don't see why it wouldn't work on a felt roof

Question 4

What is the lowest temperature to fix this to a round steel pole

Accepted Answer

Hi, the lowest temperature I would use it is 10centigrade. However when I used it I stuck the plastic bird spikes to ridge tiles with this product, yes they did stick it for a while however after say a month they began to come unstuck ! I wish, one I’d bought the metal bird spikes and two used something like superglue, at least try it as this is not that cheap to buy !!! I would suggest whatever you use MUST be ultra violet light proof to protect from the suns rays, hope this helps ?
