Bird B Gone Transparent Bird Gel - 10oz Tube - Sticky Bird Repellent for Outdoor Use - Deter Pigeons & Starlings - Easy Application with Caulking Gun - Bird Deterrent for Ledges, Pipes & Signs

OH MY GOSH...it actually works!!!! I am SOO HAPPY to be able to say that this works!!!! For 3 years now we have been dealing with birds living under our large awning on our back porch. In other words, our beautifully freshly painted deck looks like a white war zone. Ugh, it's awful! Literally...the whole deck would be covered and bird droppings and it is not the easiest stuff to clean off of wood! The birds swarm under there when it is raining and we typically get 1-2 birds nest in the corners, every year... it is a constant battle with these birds!!Before applying this, I made sure nothing was in the existing birds nest (and there wasn't) and I went crazy applying this to the beams where the birds always gather. It has rained several times since doing so and I am soooo happy to say that we don't have a drop of bird droppings on our deck!!! I was weary but because of such great reviews and such great pricing, I had to give it a try. It was very easy to apply. I would just warn others to be very careful when applying! The gel is extremely sticky and it does not harden...the consistency stays gooey. We dropped a little on our deck and I don't know why but we just assumed it would harden... the next day we realized it does not harden so when we cleaned it up, it just smeared everywhere and left a sticky spot on our deck. Luckily it wasn't anything that a little goo gone couldn't handle! We now have a clean deck and no birds in sight! I would absolutely recommend this product and I would definitely buy more in the future if needed. This stuff really works!

Maybe this is good product if it actually worked as intended, but I ended up with a useless product that wouldn't come out of the container. I bought this directly from Amazon and put it inside of my application gun, and the gel inside was frozen solid as if it was too old and formed into a solid mass inside. There was a solid mass of gel that wouldn't budge out of the container even with the hardest pressure on the application gun. I had to send this product back to Amazon for a refund, so this was more of an hassle than it was worth. At least the birds on my roof are happy because they never got to experience what this gel is supposed to do.

February 5, 2013: This product is absolutely brilliant! It is horribly sticky, difficult to see, and quite effective. The gel has transformed what had become a sort of meeting-place for flying vermin (aka, English House sparrows ... a non-native, invasive species imported from England in the mid 1800s) into a clean, quiet environment.For those worried that the gel traps sparrows to die a horrible death, this is not the case. That said, they have to (loudly) remove themselves from the happy stickiness provided by Bird-B-Gone ... which seems to result in one-trial learning. The gel has worked well in our heretofore mild winter.A couple of tips. One, do not even think of using this product without having several pairs of disposable, latex gloves with you. (Once the first pair is 'polluted' by the glue, roll them off, and replace with a new pair.) Two, use the pressure-release tab on your caulking gun liberally. Three, have a hole-less plastic shopping bag with you to hold the caulking gun while negotiating a ladder. No matter how careful I was, the caulking gun got 'polluted' by the gel ... did I mention that the gel is sticky <g>. Have some individual paper towels, hanging out of a back-pocket. You will thank me. (Wipe once, fold the residue inside, crumple the towel, and throw it away immediately.)While costly, the improvement is priceless. (Buy an extra tube. It doesn't go as far as you will initially estimate.)March 8, 2016 Addendum. Well ... some 3 years later ... I had to add some of this sticky wonderfulness to several potential sparrow nesting spots yesterday. (Over the years, pollen and leaves had reduced the effectiveness of the original treatment.) Saturday, the day before yesterday, the sparrows told us that the time was right for the 'refresh.' Those of you whom enjoy trashy invasive vermin waking you up shortly before daybreak ... well you just go right ahead enjoying it. To reuse a line made famous on the Fox show, In Living Color, "Homey, don't play dat!"We'll continue to cherish the peace and quiet Bird B Gone MMTBG Transparent Bird Gel, 10-Ounce restored for us this morning. And all of you PeopleforEatingTastyAnimals types, there were some feathers in the remnants of the first application, but no corpses of dead birds.BTW. Re-using/emptying the partially used tube (remaining from the original application) was no problem at all. For three years that partially used tube had been on the shelf, inside a plastic bag. It had not even formed a skin at the nozzle! I've ordered a couple of more tubes so that if I need them, I'll have them on-hand.

This product definitely works. We were being harassed for countless weeks by birds (Robins) sitting on our window sills and bouncing up against the window repeatedly. All day long. We'd chase them away and they would fly to the other side of the house and resume their assault. The droppings were everywhere. This was the first year we had this problem. I research several options and this was the only one that worked. And it worked immediately.The problem was that everything that touches the gel now sticks to it. First a piece of dirt. Then a maple seed. Then a small bug. Soon I had a completely visible zig zag pattern of tiny debris on my white window sills, that you can see from across the yard and which causes a look equally as unpleasant as the bird droppings. We had to remove the gel, and the process of removing the gel was tedious. I used mineral spirits, as the directions suggest, and it took me nearly 2 hours to remove the gel from 7 windows. The gel was sticky enough that I had to scrape so firmly that my fingers are still sore 24 hours later. At this point, if the bird return, I'm not sure if I'll reuse this product, or just deal with the birds instead.

my husband says this stuff really works very sticky easy to use

Does not come out of the tube, just like others have said.Either Amazon is selling old damaged product or there is truly a defect with the product.No amount of pressure from the caulking gun would work to get anything to come out. It appeared to be a solid mass inside the tube.

Doesnt work for pigeons
