Review on πŸ¦… Bird's Eye View Clear/Etched Window Deflector: 4" X 4" - Enhance Vision, Protect Your Windows by Christine Noland

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nice and easy to use but I'm not sure if it works

I really wanted them to work and I really wanted them to work because I love the birds in our garden. We recently had a solarium and every now and then we would hear a bandit. I even saw a beautiful goldfinch on the floor once after running through the door. Air pockets and leave it alone if it just had a jerk or a minor concussion I guess... Luckily this bird was fine and as soon as I was within 2ft I flew away.) After that I looked around for an opportunity . I've seen all kinds of tapes that don't seem to have very good reviews. They seemed more of a strain than I could bear and blocked my view too much. This seems like a great solution. On the other hand, they are beautiful. They're not very obvious. They are easy to place or move. They are relatively affordable compared to some other films. Big disadvantage? I don't know if they work. I heard a "hits" or two. I couldn't see what happened. So I figured I should order more and maybe they ended up somewhere, there was actually no sticker as I only bought two sets to try them out. However, one night when the light was just right, I could see this print of two birds right next to the sticker. The one just below the dot is awful... It looks like a bird in flight. To be honest, we have a lot of birds in our garden right now. You cross the Brome tributary in about a day. So it's quite possible that these decals are doing their job and without them we would have had many more hits. So I'll keep an eye on things. I would have thought it just needed more stickers if I hadn't seen two bird prints next to one of the stickers. Maybe these birds had bird brains and just didn't notice them fast enough. So I don't like them, I don't hate them... I'm just not sure if they're making a difference.
