Anti-Collision Dragonfly

They are pretty and nicely colored. So far, no bird strikes. They are larger than I thought, which is also nice.

My little 9 pound dog would get excited if she was out on the patio and saw someone inside that she loved and she’d charge toward the closed door crashing into it. The first time it happened it was scary for her but she bounced back in 5 seconds. I felt horrible about it but she’s super smart and I was convinced she wouldn’t do it again. It happened a second time and it was much worse for her - and I lost sleep over it because it scared her so much. I wanted decals that could be lined up at the bottom of the glass door at her line of vision, and where they weren’t super visible to anyone but her or toddlers. These have worked like a charm! I would have done it sooner, but I am renting from a woman and felt weird asking her. Luckily she loves my doge and said yes immediately. These are super pretty and they can be removed and repositioned easily.

At $3.25 each (which doesn't include shipping or tax) these are very expensive decals! I withhold one star for the disproportionate (to cost) price point charged here. At the same time I can tell you there are others charging even more per decal, and some decals like the spider wed are not effective. I have no doubt this product will be visible and helpful for the purpose intended. It is well made and the material affixes as suggested. I think it will save hummingbird lives, which I cherish. As shown in the photo our feeders are located high up, but the little rascals dive away at lightning speed (not because of fright from us, other hummingbirds, or other sounds or events). This dive of theirs is not only quick, but it's almost stylish the way it's performed. In my case several feet below the feeder is a rail and beneath the rail a tinted glass panel. Most of them dive towards their nests in the trees straight out and below the feeders, but once in awhile they do their stylish dive on the inside of the deck and smack the inside of the glass panel. The previous spiderweb decals may have helped some, but not enough, one is in the picture, but it's hard to see. The birds have continued to die even though the area of the web decal is as much as all 8 of these dragonfly's, but it's light colored and thin-lined just like a real web would be. The dragonfly will be easily seen, but still they have to see it, and their rapid dive may not give them time for avoidance. Many of them end up stunned on the deck. We comfort them in our hands cupping the bird and holding it elevated and outward. When they are themselves again they fly off. Sometimes they are not stunned and we see them fluttering up and down the glass seeing the forest but denied its access. We cup our hands and gently help them up and over to where it's a straight flight out. Several times a season we see a lone and lifeless bird on the deck, sometimes an obvious broken neck. Absent that obvious broken neck we lay them on the rail, if there hours later we assume the worst, and that's what we want to prevent. I have added a second photo of the referenced web decal that has not prevented these recurrences. I did some management of the camera in terms of focal plane and color to make the web show up in the photo as to the human eye it's a pale white that barely shows up. Additionally I boxed it in and showed the edge of the much darker and visible dragon fly. I'm not recommending the web as I have switched to the dragon fly hoping the improved visibility eliminates crashes that the much larger web did not stop. I may need more dragon flies. Where this retailer misses an opportunity, in my opinion, is by offering a second sheet at a reduced cost to the buyer; a price break. To the seller it should not change shipping costs.

I added these window clings to my patio door to prevent bird strikes. I had 4 strikes in three days. Since adding these window clings, I’ve had no bird strikes. Inexpensive fix and looks great.

Beautiful little decals, actually look great on 3 of my family room windows. Stopped bird strikes. Have gone through summer and winter, and colors still good. Easy static cling, come off and go on easy. [UPDATE July 2022]: 3 yrs. and still looking good on the windows!

These are beautiful decals. The "backs" look as beautiful through the glass as they do on the front. The colors are vibrant and all eight have a different color and design. We found these to be thick and sturdy and had no issues of tearing at all. Very nicely made, good quality, easy to install and we'd buy them again. My three German Shepherds and one Goofy Neighbor kept running into my clean sliding glass doors. I needed a way to alert them to a closed door before they broke it down bounding in to love us too much. I can't explain the Neighbor but we love her.

beautiful dragonfly window decals . just clean the window and press them on the glass. if you need to move the decal , you can.

Very attractive and generally prevents birds from hitting the glass, but a bit pricey.

They are a bit pricey but they are good quality and nice vibrant colors.... definitely a more interesting option as a bird deterrent than the standard black outlines. Will have to see how effective they are in the spring after being on our window in -30 over the winter and then +30 in the summer! I have a light in our baby's room that has a diffuser semi transparent cover that my baby looks up at all the time. I used a couple on the light for her to look at and she really seems to like them. We haven't had them up for a very long time yet so hopefully they stay clinging and don't fall off. They seem well attached and look really great!

Did not like the fact that when the hot sun hit the window for an extended period of time, half of them shrivelled up and wouldn't stay on the window. We put them into water to kind of re-hydrate them.Put them back on the window So far, so good. Waiting to see what happens when it gets hot again .

very nice prints of dragonflies but the print is only on one side and the other side is blank - if they were translucent they would be amazing

Love these! The birds are no longer smashing into the windows and the dragon flies are so pretty when the sun shine through the colours. Very happy.

The multi-coloured dragonflies look beautiful on my living room window and prevent bird strikes. A bit difficult to peel off the backing but an excellent product.
