Where Hot Foot Leads, Others Follow

In 1977, Roger Snow devised a simple but highly effective way of getting rid of problem birds. It was a sticky substance that was easily spread on ledges, rafters, and anywhere else birds like to roost. Stepping into the goo is extremely unpleasant for the birds, though it's totally harmless. In fact, the sensation is so unpleasant for them that they fly off for a more comfortable spot, warning other birds as they leave.

That product, Hot Foot Bird Repellent Gel, was just the beginning. Since that time, Hot Foot America has become a world leader in professional-grade bird deterrent methods. We have developed a number of patented - and environmentally friendly - solutions for getting rid of nuisance birds. Today, companies around the world have copied (though, we should point out, never improved upon) our unique products. Don't be fooled by the imitators though - there is only one Hot Foot.

Hot Foot America specializes in providing bird deterrent products for residential, commercial, government, and new construction projects. Our patented and environmentally friendly solutions help you get rid of roosting and nesting birds, and keep them away for good. Our range of products include the Hot Foot Bird Deterrent Gel, mist netting solutions, exclusive Hot Foot Birds Spikes, and bird and bug screening solutions for high- and low-traffic areas.

What really sets us apart from our competitors aside from the quality of our products is our comprehensive service. We provide everyone from do-it-yourselfers to experienced contractors with free phone consultations to help you decide which bird deterrent method is best for you, help you calculate the materials, and give you installation instructions and tips.

Don't want to do it yourself? No problem! Just call us and we will arrange for a qualified installer to bid the entire installation project for you including cleaning up existing fecal matter and installing the right repellents for the job.
