Can these plastic spikes be cut easily for shorter length?

I'm sure you could do this, but they are sharp on the ends (pointed) so it would be a lot of work to shorten them and leave a pointed end.

I wouldn't cut them. The spikes keep the birds from nesting. Otherwise, there is no deterent if cut.

I suppose they could be trimmed to shorten the length but the spikes are a bit brittle and cutting might shatter the whole spike. Hope that helps.

I think you might be able to, you would cut each support rod to the length you need, though I don't remember exactly how long the intermediate support rods are!

Not easily. They're very hard plastic and hard to cut. I'd recommend making something with wire or nails yourself.

They are on a 12 inch plastic strip and the spikes are 6 inches high but can easily clipped to fit where needed.

For circles I just do this by hand until small enough to poke with guard. For lengthwise slicing again I had no problem using spikes on gaurd

IT is a fixed length, however I am sure you could shorten by cutting the metal rod.

They arent really intended to be cut - they snap together. However , Id imagine a hack saw / sawsall would cut it just fine.

the rods do not come attached to the end supports, so i believe you could cut them before attaching them

Cutting them might shorten the length, but they are all uniformly the same length

Absolutely. A good pair of scissors or tin snips can be used to cut the pieces to your desired length.

Yes you can cut these to any length. They have lines on the strip to show you where you can cut them. Once you cut them you can't add a strip, because the cut end won't have a connector on it. Each strip has a connector on each end. I hope this helps.

Instead of cutting them, I would turn under the ends to get the required length. Fabric might fray otherwise.

Yes, you'll just have to bend them a little bit or break/cut them into shorter pieces since they come in lengths of 1 foot.

Yes...they will work under glass shelves and they can be shortened; however, any length cut from the strand will no longer work.

I also cut them off using a jig saw. The plastic is thick enough and you could easily cut it with a hacksaw.

I did not cut these to size, but I see no reason why they can't be. They are thick, though, and I think they would be difficult to cut with most scissors. A utility knife should work.

No, you cannot shorten the strips. I found that the bird scary tapes work better than the bird spikes and are much cheaper (less than $10). You might want to use both scary tapes and bird strips to keep birds away.
