Feather Guard Helps Reduce Window Strikes!

Each year millions of birds are killed in accidental collisions with glass windows and buildings. Your customers have certainly heard the sickening thunk of a bird hitting their windows. Feather Guard offers a clever, trouble-free solution to this problem.

Feather Guard uses color, motion, and the birds' natural aversion to loose feathers to warn birds away from window collisions naturally. Feather Guard easily attaches to the outside of any window in seconds and provides months of protection without cluttering or eliminating the view or light transmission of the window.

Each Feather Guard is 6 feet in length, with 5 colorful feathers (dyed poultry feathers), and attaches to the glass using two small, strong suction cups.
