5.0 out of 5 stars Only thing that worked!, September 12, 2008

By	R. Gray (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

We live in an apartment on the East China Sea in Japan - barely a 1/2 mile from the water's edge and the pigoens love our balcony! This tape is wrapped to hang along our balcony and shines reflectively against the sun and makes noise against the wind. Works great! We've tried a fake bat, owl, snakes, even WD-40 on the balcony - you name it! Our neighbors have spikes and the birds just perch on the spikes. Our balcony has been pigeon and poop free for a year now. We have had to replace it after the "winter" and typhoon season beacuse the reflectiveness wears off in wind and rain after a while - but little problem and work for us to keep these nasty birds away!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hang on windows to prevent birds from hitting them, May 28, 2007

By	K. Rakovna - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Millions of birds die or are injured every year when they hit windows. I had dozens of birds fly into the windows at my house. I taped a strip of this ribbon to the top of each window so it hangs down. It turns and twists in the breeze and alerts birds that the window is not an open space that they can fly through. It seems to have worked very well so far.

1.0 out of 5 stars Ineffective as a bird deterrent, June 12, 2008

By	Thistle (The Desert Southwest, USA) - See all my reviews

I tried putting Irri-tape around the yard to scare away the birds who were feasting on my dog's food. It worked for maybe a day then the birds realized it wasn't a threat and started ignoring it.

If you're considering getting this to keep birds away from your pet's food, try getting a Bergen Aut-O-Dine instead. That worked beautifully for me.

In my opinion, having this tape hanging all around is not only ineffective as a bird deterrent, it looks trashy.
