I found these UV decals that go on the exterior of your window to be the easiest and most successful of any solution.  <\/p>\n<p>Birds read the reflection of nature in your windows as real and think they are traveling towards trees or sky&#8211;whatever is reflected. The WindowAlert decals are nearly invisible (so you don&#8217;t have to look at decals) but the birds see UV light reflected back at them from the decal. Before applying the decals I washed the window and used rubbing alcohol to remove any residue. <\/p>\n<p>It also helps if you place feeders and bird baths either very close to the window or away at an angle. <\/p>\n<p>&#8211;Terry Powell<\/p>\n<p>For a number of months, my large glass windows were a killing field for birds. Three or four a day were ending their lives smashing into glass they could not see. I tried a number of things&#8211;gel stickers, vinyl stickers, etc. But the best thing I&#8217;ve found are these Window Alert decals. These static-cling decals reflect UV rays,invisible to people, but startling and bright for birds. I haven&#8217;t had a bird hit a window that has these decals on it.
