What is the stuff called that you put on top of a tail to keep the birds off? We have alittle of it, knowbody knows where we got it or who it came from- no names on a box. HELP Please!!! I've been told that is called,"Crown of Thorns", but haven't found that on any search. THANKS Joe

Be sure you get the metal ones, the plastic ones tend to break over time.

One of these will keep the birds off your planes! They keep the morning dove population around here down!!!

yes, but have you ever had to clean up a plane where a owl set up house keeping ? and the fake owls do not work unless you move them around every so often.

I would say try this stuff...doesn't take away from the look of the aircraft as much as a row of spikes.

:finga: :wink: try this!!! ..... seriously while in the marine business, my customers have the same problems with boats. try plastic owls mounted so they move. inflatable snakes, & inflatable eyes, the key is the movement to keep the little crappers guessing & on edge.

those pink flamigos with flapping wings that go in your front yard work as well.
