Bird deterrent method and device

A method of deterring birds comprising the steps of:

• attaching a base by one of a mechanical or chemical means to a bird perching area, said base having an outward extending flange;
• placing a bore through said flange and placing a plurality of perforations about said flange;
• placing a pin within said bore, with a washer placed thereon, said pin having a head and a blunt portion thereon;
• and
• placing a multiplicity of projecting members on said flange with said projecting members abutting said pin and placed adjacent to said washer, each of said projecting members being contiguous with two of said plurality of perforations, with said projecting members extending outward from two opposite sides of said flange in a substantially coplanar fashion.

A method of deterring birds from perching comprising the steps of:

• attaching a base to a bird perching area by a mechanical or chemical means said base having an outwardly extending flange;
• releasably securing a multiplicity of wires on a planar surface of said flange adjacent to the midpoints of said wires;
• and
• positioning said multiplicity of wires so each of said wires is cantilevered a distance in excess of two feet from opposing sides of said flange so that a substantial length of the cantilevered portions of said wires is erratically disturbed by air movement against said wires.

A deterrent to the alighting of birds comprising:

• a base secured to a bird perching area;
• a first flange and a second flange releasably secured to said base, said flanges placed adjacent to one another and secured together by mechanical or chemical means;
• and
• a multiplicity of projecting members between said first and second flanges, said projecting members cantilevering outward from said first and second flanges so that the projecting members do not lie in a substantially parallel relationship with each other and are independently disturbed in an erratic manner to create a visible deterrent to the nearby alighting of birds.

A deterrent to the alighting of birds comprising:

• a base,
• a first flange and a second flange, slidably secured to said base;
• and
• a multiplicity of projecting members, secured to said first and second flanges and cantilevering outward therefrom so that a substantial length of said projecting members is visibly disturbed independently by air movement against said projecting members.
