Question 9

What about birds?

Accepted Answer

It is true that birds often can't recognize windows or mirrors and therefore might hurt themselves. To prevent that for happening, we use UV film stickers on all of our ÖÖD houses. These stickers reflect ultraviolet light, which birds can see but humans can’t. When light reflects, birds understand that there is an object on their way and they'll change direction. Our goal has always been to blend into nature without hurting it.
