I couldnt reply to my old thread so here it is! Bird Room Project: Advice Requested | Page 2 | Avian Avenue Parrot Forum 
Alright! Im back. The aluminum wall tiles do not work with motivated macaws and they will pull them off piece by piece. The walls look like such a mess
Here we go! Things that actually do work:
1. Fridge cover to keep the mini fridge safe
2. Air filters on the floor
3. Mini split unit 12,000BTU covered by a powder coated custom metal cage. She completely tried to destroy it before I covered it.
4. Hanging food station
5. Chairs (easier to clean than the couch)
Do not use:
1. Wallpaper, aluminum peel and stick wall tile/backsplash, drywall,
2. Window AC unit. Not only does it need to be protected but it doesn't heat or cool the room efficiently.
3. Bamboo, hard wood cabinet to hold gravity water feeder, it will get destroyed
4. mesh screen behind windows. When the windows are open, even for a few minutes, they will chew it.
5. Bright LED lights. I noticed the ceiling lights impact embers vision so I covered half of them with paper.
6. Staples-ya...they wont stay in
Has anyone used this for birdroom walls? Lifeproof Trail Oak 6 MIL x 8.7 in. W x 48 in.

Textured Marble Floor and Wall Mosaic Tile (1 sq. ft. / each) PEB-MIXRVR - The Home Depot, Daltile Ayers Rock Rustic Remnant 13 in. x 13 in. Glazed Porcelain Floor and Wall Tile (16 sq. ft. / case) AY0513131P - The Home Depot (rock on bottom and smooth surface on top half of wall)

However, I do plan to complete the remodeling by September or the end of the year at the latest. In addition, the mice problem was due to a gap in the barn doors since they weren't built in properly. We plan to replace those with nice Arcadia doors. I will keep this thread updated on any progress!
