FAQs – Bird Deterrent Spinners
Do these spinners need direct sunlight to work? Yes. The effectiveness of any reflective bird repellent relies on sunlight bouncing off the unit to create a visual distraction.
Where is the best place to position the spinners on a roof?
In South Africa, the sun shines from the north. If you place a spinner on the far northern edge, it will only reflect light away from your building. To protect the roof itself, place units further back (such as the middle or southern edge) so they catch the northern sun and bounce the flashes back across the roof. Always overlap the 10m coverage radiuses of your units to eliminate blind spots.
What if I am unsure where to place the units? Reach out to us. We use Google Satellite View to remotely assess your property—whether it is a residential home or a commercial warehouse. We will calculate exactly how many spinners you need and pinpoint the best positioning for maximum coverage.
Where is the best place to install a bird deterrent spinner? These units are ideal for open, high-up areas where birds. When installing bird reflectors for roof protection, the most common spots include roof peaks, flat rooftops, parapet walls, around solar panels, and on balconies or pergolas.
Do I need a special bracket to install the spinner on an angled roof? If you choose the Eagle Eye units, you will need to select either a flat bracket or a 90-degree corner bracket. If you choose the Ecobarbet™ Bird Deterrent Spinner, the universal joint bends to fit any angle, making installation effortless on steep roofs or flat walls.
Will they spin if there isn't much wind? Yes. Both the Ecobarbet™ and Eagle Eye units are designed with durable lightweight components that catch even the slightest breeze. This ensures your reflective bird deterrent stays active and effective without needing electricity.
Can these be used for businesses and residential homes? Absolutely. Our spinners provide heavy-duty, commercial-grade protection for massive warehouse roofs and agricultural spaces, while remaining a popular, low-maintenance choice for homeowners protecting rooftops, backyard fruit trees and solar panels.
How many units do I need? The Ecobarbet covers an 8-10 meter radius, while some Eagle Eye units cover up to 15 meters. For larger commercial roofs or complex residential layouts, you may need multiple units spaced apart to ensure there are no "blind spots" where birds can hide from the flashes.
