I therefore presume it is a Cat o' Nine Tails you have let out? Better lock you up in the brig!
No other info I'm afraid, just Google a few key words and see what pops out of the woodwork so to speak?

err, not all birds 'see' in the UV light range, so it might be less than effective for e.g. gulls.

I know bird carp is bad, especially when the starlings hit the berries, but is it really any advantage to replace the free bird carp with a sticky yellow gel that you paid £42 for and have to replace every 3 months?

I have not used it myself but have been on a boat that used something very similar (Hotfoot). Lots of sticky goo all over the place to get on your hands. Doesn't look nice either. Personally I think that bird **** is preferable.
If you want to get rid of the birds paint some big eyes on a buoy - the one that you keep handy to attach to your anchor line if you have to leave in a hurry - and suspend it from the end of the boom on a short line. Mine hangs just above the level of the top of the dodger. For some reason it scares the birds: they probaly think someone is on board as it sways with the smallest ripple. I also put some big black 'eyes' on the mooring bouy when it lies on the foredeck. Works well.
