It may feel like birds are harmless, but when they choose your property to start a home, they can very easily become both a nuisance and a problem. From destroying roofs and vents to creating health hazards in the form of droppings, unwanted birds can be a costly problem for both homeowners and business owners. At AAA Kyles Wildlife Removal, we provide safe & efficient bird removal services. Here are the key indicators that it’s time to get the pros involved.
Nesting in Vents, Chimneys or Gutters
Scratching, fluttering or chirping in your vents or chimney. These are all indicators that birds have located a nesting spot. Occupied by dust, dirt or debris, blocked vents can restrict airflow, impair HVAC systems, and in some cases, create fire hazards.
Excessive Bird Droppings
Bird poop doesn’t just look bad — it can harbour dangerous diseases like histoplasmosis, and can even eat away at building materials. If you see feces building up around windows, on roofs, or around walkways, then you have an infestation.
Property Damage
Birds can cause a lot of damage through:
- Tearing insulation to make nests
- Clogged up gutters and downspouts
- Damaging shingles or roof tiles
- They chew on wires and pose a fire risk.
Unpleasant Odors
Strong odours can make their way through your home or business as nests build up and droppings collect. This is not only gross but also possibly a health hazard.
Increased Noise
If you hear constant chirping, flapping, or pecking coming from your walls, attic, or vents, it likely means birds have moved in. The noise factor can increase during the breeding season.
Sudden Increase in Bird Activity
If you see more birds than usual lingering near your house (and particularly near rooflines, ledges or vents), they might be nesting in proximity.
Reasons Why Professional Bird Removal is Important
DIY bird removal is dangerous and often doesn’t solve the problem. Professional services ensure:
- The safe and humane way to remove birds
- Preventative measures such as bird netting, spikes, and vent covers
- Your property will experience long-lasting protection against re-infestation
