Flock Free bird repellent is for homeowners and property managers trying to discourage birds from using ledges, balconies and yards. The diluted spray suits a few problem spots; concentrate suits a larger treatment area. Choose the format around the space the birds keep using.
Flock Free is a family-owned bird-control company based in Lakewood, New Jersey. It started in 2007 when Tom Kaps partnered with Paul Rosario. The company manufactures its own repellent line and offers bird-control installation services.
Choosing spray or concentrate
For a doorway, balcony or a few ledges, the diluted Bird Repellent Spray keeps preparation simple. It comes with a built-in sprayer. That format fits a small treatment area.
For a whole roof, lawn or yard, concentrate is the format intended for the larger job. You supply the sprayer or fogger for the larger concentrate. Map the places the birds actually use before deciding how much ground needs treatment.
Flock Free’s Bird Repellent range uses one plant-based formula across its formats. You’re choosing how it’s prepared and applied. Use the mixing and application directions for your particular container.
Judging the results
Whether birds stay away depends on the site and the approach. Flock Free’s bird-control program includes monitoring population reduction and refining weak spots, with a combination of methods used for a full-scale program. Judge the treatment by whether fewer birds return to your problem area.
The mistake to avoid is treating the dirty ledge and overlooking the landing spots beside it. Birds can shift onto an untreated surface. When you’re checking results, watch the adjoining ledges too.
For a boat-hoist canopy, Seagull Stopper uses canopy-mounted posts and elevated lines to interrupt the open landing area gulls need, with no refills, chemicals or power supply.
Other lawn and garden products
Flock Free also has a separate mosquito-repellent range that includes a spray concentrate. Other product names in the lineup include Grape Pucks, Pest Away Spray and Pest Away Pucks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Flock Free bird repellent spray ready to use?
Flock Free bird repellent spray comes diluted, with a built-in sprayer, so you don’t need to mix concentrate for a small job. It’s intended for a few ledges, a doorway, a balcony or one corner of a yard.
How much does Flock Free bird repellent concentrate make?
The 32-ounce Flock Free bird repellent concentrate makes up to 16 gallons. You supply the sprayer or fogger, and the directions on your container govern mixing and application.
How can you tell whether Flock Free bird repellent spray is working?
Judge Flock Free bird repellent spray by whether fewer birds return to the treated area. Watch adjoining landing spots too, because moving birds onto the next ledge doesn’t solve the whole problem. Continued activity is a reason to reassess the treatment area and the methods you’re using.
What bird-control options does Flock Free offer besides spray?
Flock Free’s bird-control range includes spikes, netting, hazers, sprayers, liquid repellents, shock systems and visual deterrents. The right approach depends on the birds and the space they’re using; a full-scale program can combine methods and adjust them as you track results.
