To prevent small birds, as well as insects in the form of wasps and bees, from settling under the roof, it is necessary to close the ventilation gap.
For this, the author suggests using a ventilation tape for the overhang of the roof, which is made of plastic. It can be bought at a hardware store.
The length of one roll is 5 meters, and the width is -10 cm. Such a tape also protects the ventilation gap under the roof from foliage.
The material of which the ventilation tape is made is resistant to UV radiation and sudden changes in temperature.
The main stages of work
To close the ventilation under-roof gap, a tape width of 5 cm will be enough. Therefore, first of all, you need to cut the roll in half. For this, the author uses ordinary scissors.
The ventilation tape is attached to the wooden structural elements using self-tapping screws with a press washer.
For convenience and quick installation, it is advisable to use a screwdriver. But if suddenly it is not at hand, then you can also screw the screws with an ordinary screwdriver.
We recommend that you watch the detailed installation process of the ventilation tape for overhanging the roof in the video on our website.
