"Brianâ s company and workers were top notch! It was easy to see he has over 20 years of experience. He fixed our groundhog issue living under our deck, as well as installing vent covers on our roof to prevent birds nests and insects nests. He also sealed our roof in a few places to prevent bats, we are very happy with everything he did for us. Professional, kind, and detailed explanations of each job he did for us. I highly recommend this company and will call him again for anything we may need in the future!"

"My service experience with Reliable Pest Control was very positive. Aaron visited my home and was very knowledgeable on evaluating the issue and best treatment methods to take care of the pest issues I have been facing. He even gave feedback on a few items that I had not noticed. He is very friendly and willing to talk through any questions. I would highly recommend him and his company for pest control services."

"We had birds nesting in an exhaust fan duct that was open on the exterior of the house. I called best pest to have them come out, remove the nest and install a new cover which I had already purchased. The technician came out with a ladder and a coat hanger and claimed he couldn't get the nest out because it was too deep into the vent (using a coat hanger.... Not surprised!). He also said it was too difficult and complicated to install the new cover I had purchased, so he ran to the local Menards (which was nice of him) and purchased a cage like cover to fit over the current exhaust to stop birds from getting into the vent. I called a professional to deal with the problem because I didn't have the tools needed to fix it properly. What they did I could have done in 10 minutes for a tenth of the cost. Didn't meet my expectations on any level. The technician was a nice guy, but didn't really fix my problem and I've stressed about it since.

"After hearing claw scraping sounds from the crawl space on a Wednesday morning I joined Angie's List Thursday evening and searched  the top rated animal removal services. Mr. Lawson's All Animal Rodent Removal had the best references and an acceptable price structure. I called Mr. Lawson at 8 AM Friday and was lucky enough to get him before he left his office. He was here before noon and completed an inspection of the exterior of the house both on the ground and the roof. He determined where the animal was coming into the crawl space, he went into the crawl space and found that the incursion was recent due to the scent and lack of refuse. He placed a trap and instructed me how and when to check it. The next morning there was a raccoon in the trap. I called Mr. Lawson and told him, by the time we returned from running errands the trap and raccoon had been removed and a system installed to determine whether there were more animals under there. After my checking the system for several days with no evidence I called, he returned and installed screens behind the offending crawl space vents, as we had discussed in his previous visit. I highly recommend All Animal Rodent Removal."

Bird Control questions, answered by experts

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.

The lifespan of a bird's nest depends on the species. The building process can take from two days to three weeks. Once built, the nesting period for baby birds can last from two to ten weeks before they leave the nest. While most young birds are ready in two to six weeks, some predatory species may need up to two and a half months. Some species nest four to five times per year, so a nest could remain in use for several months. For specific information about a particular nest's longevity, it is best to consult a wildlife professional.

Both spikes and loose nets can be installed over nest sites to prevent the bird from returning, but nets are not a humane option since birds and other wildlife can get tangled in them. 

Spikes are a humane alternative that deter nesting without harming the birds. In small areas, like vents, a very fine mesh net can be installed to prevent the bird from returning. These nets don't generally pose a risk to the birds.

Hanging wind chimes or motion-activated speakers near your home may be an effective way to deter woodpeckers, as sudden movement and sound often scare birds away. You could also try using reflective decorative items such as pinwheels or mirrors or placing decoys of large predatory birds in your yard. If these measures don’t deter the woodpeckers, you may need the help of a bird removal pro.

When it comes to keeping birds from doing their business on your porch rails, you have several DIY options and home remedies you can try: 

  • Tie a fishing line from one end of the deck post to the other. Birds won’t be able to see the line across the railing, so they can’t land on it.  

  • Hang wind chimes close by, which may scare birds away. 

  • Apply a bird gel repellent to the railings, which contains smells that birds generally don’t like. Or, similarly, you can apply citronella or lemon oil around the railings, since birds don’t like strong smells.
