Default "Bird Cage" Revisited

Many of you will recall several years ago I made a cage to prevent
birds from nesting in an entryway chandelier...

Prevents nesting, but the !@#$%^&* birds still hang onto the wire grid
and poop into the chandelier :-(

Since there has been recent discussion on S.E.D of flexible plastics,
I was wondering if there's something available flexible enough to redo
my "bird cage" so that the birds can't cling to it?

It's Spring in AZ, 85? today, so my need is immediate ;-)

Make it a cat cage instead of bird cage :-)
Can you cut every other wire and bend it out to make it difficult to stand
on.
Probably not, I think the wires are to short.
My neighbors have 3" wire sticking up at +45 and -45 degrees off the top
of their mailbox to keep the birds away.

PS. I work on a marina and the idiots just love to feed the seagulls (flying
rats).
If you fed one you have 80 flying around.


Paradise Valley Mall has REAL barn owls nesting at each entryway...
ZIPPO pigeons... the PETA people are outraged ;-)
