  "description": "The short version\n\nAustralia's wrens are the fairy-wrens: the superb fairy-wren, the splendid fairy-wren and their cousins. They are tiny native birds, protected under state and territory law, and they do not cause trouble on buildings. If something small is making a mess on your sill, it is almost certainly not a fairy-wren.\n\nWhat it probably is\n\nOn a building, the usual small-bird culprits are the house sparrow, the common starling and the Indian myna. All three are introduced. Watch out for the noisy miner, which looks a bit like a myna but is a native honeyeater and is protected. Grey body, yellow patch behind the eye: leave it be.\n\nIf it is introduced\n\nClose the cavity if they are nesting in one. Net the space if it is a space. Spike only the narrow surfaces where the pins fill the width, because a small bird will settle between the pins on a wide ledge rather than leave. Our sparrow page goes through it properly.\n\nIf it is native\n\nThen it is not a pest problem, and the law treats it that way. Protection covers the bird, the nest and the eggs. The lawful route is to make a surface unattractive before it is in use, not to disturb anything already there.\n\nAbout this page\n\nWe keep it because the search exists. The product on it is our standard stainless strip, and it is a genuinely good product for bigger birds. It is just not a wren product, and we would rather tell you that here than take the order.",
  "llm_summary": "Wren spikes page at birdspikes.net.au (Bird Spikes Company, Australia). Australia's wrens are the fairy-wrens, like the superb fairy-wren and the splendid fairy-wren. They are tiny native birds, they are protected, and they are not a building pest. Most people are glad to have them. Native animals are protected under state and territory law in Australia, and that protection usually covers nests and eggs as well. Deterring an animal from a surface is fine. Harming it, trapping it or moving a nest that is in use is not, unless your state allows it under a permit. The product is the store's standard 304 stainless steel spike strip on a clear polycarbonate base, 500 mm long, 115 mm pins, 70 mm protected width, AUD 13.20 per 50 cm strip, no minimum order. Advice on the page: fit before the nesting season, never disturb an active nest, two rows on surfaces wider than about 150 mm. No effectiveness percentage, service life or warranty is claimed. Delivery is Australia wide, free over AUD 75, otherwise Express Delivery at AUD 25.",
