The birds were flocking to it - but they were also flying into the windows and suffered terribly - more than one puddle of blood I found on my front door step not to mention feathers and imprints of bird's bodies on the windows. We had to do something. We moved the feeder far from the house first. Then we bought these discs and also some bird decals (the kind that birds can see but people can't, so much). When we got the discs, we wanted more than the kit provided because we have 9 windows to do (including the Dining Room windows), so we got creative and added TO this kit. We created our owncustom bird repellent discs using this and implementing our own ideas into them as well. We bought holographic silver paper, some laminating sheets, small 1" mirrors, 1/4" ribbon, and found things around the house such as bells and small 1 1/4" silver outdoor Christmas balls (facted), and went to town. We incorporated the mirrored diamonds into our design.. we tied our 1/4" satin ribbon to each end, affixed mirrors to the ribbons half way down using our glue gun, then put our homemade holographic diamonds which we'd laminated and polyurethaned to make them weather proof further down the strand.... they came out great - and we got more bang for our buck and had a ball doing it. If your crafty and inventive, creative and like little projects, you'll enjoy doing this too! See our picture and video - the birds care coming to the feeder and so far, I guess there was one hit, just now, my daughter reported. I have to go see which window and where.. We keep working to get 0 hits.

Edit: March 9, 2017:Unfortunately this was mostly a waste of money. I hung 24 of these danglers from the ceiling of an open bay (20' x 50') where we park the motorhome. The sparrows got completely used to the danglers in a few days. In fact they are back building a nest where they previously pulled out ceiling insulation - there is a dangler right there. This product might have kept a few sparrows away but not enough to solve my problem. I noticed these are now unavailable - that's a good thing.These would only work if they hit a sparrow in the head and knocked it out.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This is my second order, this time for two sets. I hung the first set from the ceiling of a roof (where I park my motorhome) where I have a huge problem with nesting and roosting sparrows. Darned if it didn't work, no more bird poop on the rear cap of the motorhome. Product quality is quite good, hardware should last for a long time. The true test will be if the birds don't get used to the objects over a period of time. We'll see.

**UPDATE August 24, 2020 - The round links used to connect the mirrored disks have all rusted. I do not live by the ocean. In less than 2 months after hanging outside the ring links are severely compromised. Since these are "bird repellent discs" you would think the hardware used in manufacture would hold up to the exterior weather. The links rusted and one even broke. I think you can find something else longer lasting for the cost. I did not purchase this item with the thought that it would have to be replaced monthly. While the design as a repellent is effective, I am very disappointed in the performance/longevity of this product.ORIG POST -While a little bit pricey and the mirror-like disks are lightweight the overall function of this bird repellant cannot be dismissed. It works, and holds up to tropical winds. A winner for me. Happy to recommend.

These are very attractive and seem to be keeping the woodpeckers away from my cedar porch posts. I think they have helped birds not crash into my windows. I've only hung two sets and would probably need to hang more to keep birds off the porch altogether. They are well made and quiet...the holographic bird tape I'd used before made a lot of racket in the wind. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that they've gotten scratched up pretty quickly as we've had a lot of windy weather. The squares are silvered acrylic and the scratches remove the finish, just fine scratches so far. They are still very shiny and work great, just not sure how long the finish will hold up.

I have had a pigeon problem for 9 years in my current home, and installed the normal fishing line, and spike solutions. However, we've continually had problems with Pigeon and Dove poop in our pool, and as of late....Ducks. The duck poop is even worse since they go in the pool and it drops to the bottom and damages the pool floor. We recently tried beach balls with water in them for stability, but the birds merely kept an eye on the balls while continuing to hang out.Then a miracle happened.One of our friends bought these diamond shaped miracles to use on ducks since they live on a small lake and they said they work pretty good. "Pretty good" doesn't particularly engender confidence, but what the heck, it was only $25 for 2 boxes. They delivered a week ago, and we installed them on our pool fence at 8' intervals, and on our tall landscape lights, total of 16 hung around the pool...then we waited.Hand to God...after installing these things (which resemble wind chimes for those who question aesthetics) after 6 days in use, we have rid ourselves of birds completely. I know it sounds dubious, but I am telling the truth...NO BIRDS WHATSOEVER AFTER 6 DAYS!Now, we are trying to figure out how to use these in the front yard without offending the HOA sensitivities, and are hoping the wind-chime look will help us in that category.If things change I will update, but I have to say, I am sold, and am thinking about selling these at yard sales for twice the price. That's my confidence level so far.Buy it, is all I can say.
