Here are a couple of pictures of a Freeview TV aerial installation in Leeds that we had to fit plastic bird spikes to. The aerial was installed originally to the gable end wall of the house as this was the only place that a good signal could be received, but the problem was that birds sat on the aerial installation and deposited bird mess all over the customers car! The solution that one of our expert aerial engineers came up with was to do two things.
Solution one – Fit bird spikes to any surface that a bird could perch on.
Solution two – Install a new bracket and cranked mast so that the aerial was now over the roof and not the drive (as you can see in the bottom picture) so if the birds managed to sit on the aerial the mess would drop onto the roof tiles and not the car.
As the spikes are plastic they have no affect on the TV reception at all, so if you are having bird mess problems give us a call and we can come up with a solution.
