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°F today, so my need is immediate ;-)

Try the graphic arts section in an art store for flexible plastic. You
can also get cool chrome-look metallized plastic film etc.

If you can't find anything, I could send you a sheet of ~6 mil Lexan
rolled up in a paper tube, but you should be able to get it locally in
one-off.
