Bigger Birds??

Actually, having had to deal with the conservation issues on statuary
and architecture from using "hot foot" and other chemical treatments,
I would urge you to avoid those. I have also seen metal spikes
(doesn't work) and rubber owls.

It might be best to find out what specific birds are causing your
problem and the try to tailor a solution that will work for them.

I am sure that others on the list may have some useful ideas for you
too.

Cheers!
