PIGNX® Bird Repellent

PIGNX® Bird Repellent is an innovative, humane solution designed to deter birds from landing or roosting on various

structural surfaces. It is an EPA-registered and NSF-certified product, ensuring its safety and effectiveness. The gel is

formulated with food-grade mineral oil and capsaicin—the active compound in chili peppers—creating a contact repellent

that affects a bird’s sense of touch. When birds, such as pigeons, seagulls, woodpeckers, or swallows, come into contact

with the gel, they experience extreme discomfort, often likened to walking on hot molten lava rocks. This sensation trains

them through negative reinforcement to avoid returning to treated areas, all without causing harm to the birds, humans, or

other animals.

Key Features

• Purpose: Prevents birds from perching or roosting on surfaces like ledges, window sills, beams, parapets, signs,

and balconies.

• Composition: Made from non-toxic, food-grade mineral oil and capsaicin derived from fruit and vegetable

extracts.

• Safety: Eco-friendly and harmless to birds, mammals, and humans; it does not trap or entangle birds.

• Durability: Can last up to one year outdoors and up to three years indoors, with the capsaicin becoming stronger

as it ages.

• Versatility: Effective in all climates, from 15°F to 200°F, and suitable for most surfaces, though porous surfaces

(e.g., concrete, stucco, wood) may require a barrier to prevent absorption.

Availability

PIGNX® is sold in various forms to suit different needs:

• 10-ounce caulking tubes for small to medium areas.

• 5-gallon buckets for large-scale applications.

Effectiveness

The gel is marketed as a highly effective solution for bird control, with many users reporting success, such as birds being

deterred within a day. However, effectiveness may vary depending on the bird species and environment—some urban

pigeons, for instance, may be less responsive. Its superior adhesion and durability make it a reliable choice across diverse

conditions.
