- 1). Remove any dirt or debris from the area to be treated. Allow the area to dry completely before applying the gel.
- 2). Cut the tip of the gel tube off with a razor knife at a slight angle. Puncture the seal in the tip of the tube with a long nail. Insert the gel tube into the caulking gun.
- 3). Place double-sided tape on the outer rim of the gutter, the inside bottom of the gutter and along the edges of any other areas where the gel will be applied.
- 4). Apply a bead of the gel up to a 1/2-inch wide and high on the tape along the outer rim of the gutter. Apply another bead of the gel along the tape in the inside bottom of the gutter.
- 5). Apply a bead up to 1-inch wide on the tape along the edges of wider surfaces nearby where birds may land.
- 6). Remove old or dirty gel, after six to 12 months, by pulling up the double-sided tape with the gel on it from the treated area. Reapply the tape and gel, as needed.
