Bird repellent
Parks & Recreation, Jan, 2005
BirdShield[TM] by Bird-X is a food-grade, biodegradable bird repellent that reduces bird nesting and roosting on structures, roofs, interior and exterior walls, siding, statues, bridges, beams, boat docks and marinas. It can even be sprayed directly on nests. Liquid BirdShield dries, leaving a residue with a "grape-like" odor. This odor irritates birds' trigeminal systems, similar to our sense of smell, yet is environmentally friendly and harmless and is effective against spar rows, starling, pigeons, barn swallows, gulls, woodpeckers and more. The active ingredient is a constituent of Concord grapes and has been used by the food and drug industry for more than 40 years to flavor candy, gums, sodas and drugs. BirdShield can be painted on full strength or sprayed on in a diluted mix with water.
