Product Description
Bird Free Fire Gel Bird Repellent (15 dishes & 15 Pieces of 3M Adhesive Tape per box) BIRDFIRE - Bird Free Optical Deterrent Gel deters most species of pest birds from architectural / structural details of buildings and contiguous structures. BIRDFIRE Bird Free avian gel dishes creates an illusion of flames owing to 'avian eyesight' or the ability to see in the ultraviolet light zone. As birds approach the primary roosting site their flight path and behavioral landing pattern is altered when confronted with a wall of fire. The immediate result is a bird free building. Compared to other types of gel repellent products available to the consumer almost all are the tactile gel variety or rather a single sensory version. By comparison BIRDFIRE /Bird Free gel consists of multi-sensory components (visual, olfactory, taste, and touch sense). All biological components work simultaneously to stimulate the birds to fly elsewhere. BIRDFIRE / Bird Free Optical Deterrent Gel is available in small 3" diameter x 1/2" high dishes which can be installed indoors or outdoors without causing damage to buildings or structures. The dishes can be placed almost anywhere - on Tele / Power Poles, Electric Sub -stations, Bridge Beams, Marine Structures, architectural / ornamental building details, Bill Boards, Balconies, railings, roof ridges, chimney tops, gutters, tree limbs, etc. The list is endless. All bird scare products work best when used in combination with each other as they increase the birds fear and flight response to the perceived predator threat. Solve bird problems at refineries, grain silo’s, ‘no flame’ sites warehouses, roll top doors, loading docks Residential, balconies, railings, chimney’s

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I wanted a cruelty-free option though, and something that's eco-safe. I took a chance on these and I'm so glad I did. They're individually sealed cups and very easy to stick up anywhere. They look like little shallow cups of jello. We had a great neighborhood handyman get up on the roof and stick them around. It was so interesting to see the birds try to land around the cups and then take off and turn their heads in confusion. It works!!
The smell is kind of citronella/pepperminty for the first few days. I've placed them around my patio table, because the birds were actually sleeping on the table before. They haven't been back! My neighbors have all asked about this product and I send them the direct link to these. Though they are pricey, they are actually a better value than the other kind featured here on Amazon. I'm so glad we discovered this product.
Here are some additional tips that I've accumulated during our pigeon struggle : Make sure you eliminate water sources (pigeons will come for swimming pools too) . Try to install spikes in combination with these cups. Also, try to spray the water hose at the birds - it doesn't hurt them, they just learn not to hang around the area. You may have to be diligent with this for a couple of weeks, but it really helps. If the hose will reach, spray them right off the roof. These gel cups aren't harmed by water, so don't worry about getting them a little wet.

My family is totally new to problems like this! Fighting doves and having a balcony.
2. I read ALL the reviews & really appreciated them - especially from hit weather climate folks! Thanks, everyone!
3. The dishes are relatively easy to install, though I had to get on a ladder, AND I bought a strong liquid glue (LocLite Premium 3X) to be 100% sure they stuck -- the included double-sided tape *does* help with positioning...but I would not rely on it for outdoor use.
4. It's true, the gel doesn't SMELL bad! Kind of like spice & orange, more like a bathroom freshener, BUT THE BIRDS *HATE* IT!!
Unfortunately, the deterant effect wears off quickly.
5. SPACING: At first, I put up two per 16" gap; that kept the doves away for three weeks! Then...the Eurasian Doves started to come to the railing or land BETWEEN the sticky discs (or "dishes", as referred to by The Bird Free instructions).
So, I put up one more per 16" space = THREE on each balcony gap (btwn the support beams). Fortunately, the Bird Free comes with more dishes. By the way...the "sticky" doesn't wash off easily if it gets on your HANDS (use dishwasher fluid and a nail brush), but it also doesn't sting or stink, and any residue will be gone by the next day.
THREE DISCS kept the birds away for another week...it wore off faster this time. After that, they STILL landed on the narrow available gaps left on that patio rafter! Argh! Stubborn, ain't they?!
So. I had to put FOUR "dishes" per 16 inch space, leaving ZERO room for the doves to land.
They also got sticky feet covered in gloop if they stepped on the disc (since there was NO OTHER PLACE TO LAND at this point) -- which did make them fly away. NOTE: you may find sticky gloop on the patio railing or elsewhere. A small price to pay and Clorox Clean-up will take that off, if necessary.
6. ADDITIONAL BIRD PREVENTION DEVICE: With as many "Bird Away" discs/dishes in the balcony rafters as I could fit..the scent only fully spooked them away for three days.
The Eurasian Doves still came, though far less, and they were spreading gloop -- especially to the railing. (photograph: see railing on neighbor's balcony)
So, I also bought the sonic "Bird X" device that I had been reading about (see my review there). This was to cover the middle area of the balcony, at least.
"The Bird X", combined with "Bird Away", finally worked!!!! The doves took a hint and if they still tried to get in the rafters...the sticky feet made them leave (not nest, or mess, OR make their unpleasant call -- loudly in the morning).
7. KEEP THE BIRDS YOU *DO* WANT: none of the bird prevention devices have negatively prevented our humming birds from drinking from feeders hung from the same ceiling rafters (which were often intimidated by the Eurasian doves, who are gigantic to them).
8. Came with EXCELLENT explanatory instructions (see photograph).

The only downside is that flies and other flying insects get stuck to the gel and looks kind of yucky. But I’ll take that over pigeons and their droppings any time!!
Love this product!
