Abstract
A pest deterrent system is provided by an elongate flat flexible panel configured to be formed into a compressed bowed shape and installed in the compressed bowed shape onto a portion of a roof support and an underside of roof sheathing. The bowed shape of the installed panel frictionally secures the panel in place adjacent the roof support and the roof sheathing without the use of fasteners.
Claims1
A method for deterring pest from a roof structure having a roof purlin supporting roof sheathing, the method comprising the steps of:
- providing an elongate flat flexible panel;
- conforming the panel to a compressed outwardly bowed shape onto a portion of the roof purlin and an underside of the roof sheathing without the use of fasteners so that the outwardly bowed shape of the panel extends between the roof purlin and the roof sheathing and maintains the panel in place on the purlin to inhibit pests from access to the purlin and the underside of the roof sheathing.
