Corrugated blocking strips?

[Moondog55]

Anybody know where I can buy some of the profiled steel strips for blocking off roofing sheets?
I want the flat steel type not the foam pad type. Have a problem with sparrows nesting and because this is a retrofit the foam packers will not work for me. Used and/or S/H would be fine as I only need a few strips, Bunnings no longer stock them and I couldn't find them on the Stratco website

Is this the sort of thing? https://gardineraustralia.com.au/pro...f-infill-strip

Not metal but vermin proof. Alternatively you could buy the strip flashing in colorbond etc and scribe and cut it yourself if you only need a few pieces. Alternatively again could you fill with expanding foam and trim neatly with a bread knife and paint?

No; I need the flat steel version. I had some and it has disappeared I think it accidentally got recycled

Never knew they could be bought and never used them.
In the 70's/80's I did a lot of bird proofing on custom orb/corrugated roofing and all we used was a roof screw in every corrugation at the gutter batten (provided the batten was hard to the fascia) then, under ridge cap and flashing we rolled up bird wire.

I think I know what you mean, have a look on ShedBlog

They aren't particularly cheap, but they are certainly a nice idea.

Is it the gutter end or ridge you want to seal? Skilled roof plumbers would do the ridge by cutting the ridge capping itself at the crease. Great to watch!

Either way, sounds like a good reason for a new tool - a nibbler or power shears Unless your hands and wrists are up to doing it manually?

I'll add a photo later.
We've added some shade sails to cover our back area and I used the brackets from Queensland.

To support the brackets I added in a 140*45 MGP12 between the rafters and screwed to the top plate, this has left a gap just large enough for a sparrow to get in and nest.
The blocking strip I am after is similar to the unit in droogs post but flat and was usually attached to the top plate

I'm having trouble visualising what you are after?
I have these on the bottom edge of my vertical laid siding sheets:

and I used the foam under the roof flashings:

Did you look at their range of products or just the link I posted?

These are flat, well maybe a 5 degree bend on them

Once you add the photo there may be some other idea's
