How It Works

The pointed but blunt spikes create an uncomfortable surface that animals instinctively avoid — no training required. Simply place the strips wherever you want to deter digging, climbing, or scratching. Link multiple strips together to cover larger areas or configure them around irregular shapes. The interlocking design makes it easy to build a custom layout for any space.
