"The rep came out as promised, and gave us a quote on the spot- about $1000. He filled in the three woodpecker holes, and removed my messy attempts to eradicate the bird. He then added several "toys" to keep the bird away- an owl face with metallic streamers, and four little bicycle reflectors to confuse it. Finally, he set up a speaker that broadcasts timed recordings of bird distress calls and predator bird calls. He came back a week later and painted the repairs, using paint we gave him. Final report- we have not seen the woodpecker since. Nice job!"

"Frank took care of my skunk problem professionally & swiftly. Something was digging small holes all over my back and side yard. I made the classic homeowner mistake of getting a live trap cage and setting it myself, without really thinking through what to do if I caught something. Set it out Friday night and sure enough, at 6am Saturday morning I've caught a skunk. Now what? Checked the Kane County animal control site and they won't do anything. Started calling nearby local wildlife removal companies that advertise 24 hour service, and get a lot of recordings to "leave an message and we'll get back to you." Then I run across Frank's listing on Google, which shows he's in the next town over and he's open for business at 7am. Give him a call at 7:02am and he picks up the phone. Thanks me for calling and say's he'll be over shortly. Quotes me a price that i feel is very fair. Thirty minutes later Frank pulls up, and takes care of the removal. Gave me a good price since I had already purchased the trap and did the capture. Good guy, very knowledgable. Highly recommend. PS. A couple of hours later I heard back from one of the 24 hour companies. They quoted a price twice what Frank charged. Never did hear back from the others I left messages with."

"They came in on time, and were very thorough. Bait they've placed is all pet and child safe. They inspected exterior of our home and sprayed repellents in likely nesting areas. Highly recommend"

"Technician arrived on time, completed the work in a professional manner, clearly explained what he had done and offered suggestions on how to solve another animal control problem that I'll most likely address in the spring.

Bird Control questions, answered by experts

Yes, predator decoys work to keep birds away, at least temporarily. However, if the decoy remains motionless in the same spot for a long enough time, the birds will eventually wise up and realize it's a fake. Keep changing the location of the predator decoy to ensure that the birds keep their guard up and maintain their distance.

When woodpeckers start banging on your walls or roof, they are probably looking for insects to eat, storing nuts for winter, drilling a hole to make a nest, or communicating with other birds to establish territory or find a mate.

The size of the hole can help determine the reason for the pecking. Small irregular holes are a result of insect hunts. Acorn holes are more consistently sized and often fitted with a nut in the middle. Nest holes are large and have rounded edges. If the bird is pecking to mark its territory or attract a mate, it may leave dents rather than holes, and the noise will stop when the mating season starts in spring.

Using audio and visual methods to discourage birds might work initially, but birds tend to acclimate to them over time. While chemical deterrents can show some effectiveness, their results can be inconsistent. Some may dissipate too quickly, and there's a risk they might cause unintended damage to your surroundings. Additionally, birds might become immune or resistant to the impact of such treatments.

Keeping birds away from a porch can involve a combination of strategies. Start with cleaning your porch. Remove food, debris, and plants that may be attracting feathered friends. Afterward, install physical deterrents like netting or spikes. Next, top off your porch with a decoy or two—and owl or hawk works. When wondering how to keep birds off the porch, it is always best to use humane efforts that won't harm winged creatures or the environment.

This depends on if their needs are being met. They'll likely return night after night if they have access to food, water, and adequate shelter. If this changes, they’ll look for another roosting spot. This is why bright lights and other dissuading factors often work when removing bats from a property.
