SPIKES

can be mounted on any surface whether flat, curved or irregular, and on any material,
whether masonry, metal, canvas, glass or wood. Stackable 12" units affix quickly with SPIKES

Special Adhesive, screws, nails, wire ties, etc. Because each unit is exactly one foot long,
measurement of the area to be protected quickly yields the number of units needed. A unit may be cut
easily to fit lengths less than 12". Always firmly attach SPIKES

- never balance sections
precariously or wedge them.
COVERAGE
Keep in mind that SPIKES



is only effective where it is applied; nearby areas unprotected by
SPIKES



can encourage roosting. Make a working diagram during the measuring stage; it will
translate into a well-covered installation.
Spacing: Measure (accurately) the width in inches of each area to be covered. For every 4" of
width, use one row of SPIKES



; for fractions thereof, use one row of NARROW SPIKES



(equivalent to one-half row of SPIKES

). The projections from SPIKES


should extend at
least ½" past the exposed edge or edges of the area.
Correctly spaced installations for various surface widths
plus projections extending exposed edge
Calculation of Linear Feet Needed: Measure (accurately) the length in feet of each area to
be covered, allowing for curves or bends in the surface - flexible SPIKES

will follow easily.
Based on length (multiply each length by 2, 3, 4 etc. if necessary for each width as discussed
above in Spacing:), order an appropriate amount of SPIKES

Special Adhesive: apply a bead of adhesive to underside of base. Firmly press

onto surface so that it makes solid contact. Allow adhesive to dry. (Adhesive will
form a "rivet" through the holes in the base.) Bond only to dry, clean surfaces. If two installers
are working, one can carry a quantity of stacked units in one hand, and apply adhesive with the
other hand, while another affixes each unit to the surface. If one installer is working, he/she
