"After opening the outside vent, they discovered a birds nest in the vent which was causing very little air flow in the vent. This contributed and was the cause of having to run the clothes through 2 cycles to get dried. They cleaned out the vent and replaced the cover with an anti bird cover to prevent this from occurring in the future. Great persons who performed the job. Highly recommended. Would hired again."

"Carl Nixon of Raven Pest control did an excellent job with my particular situation. I had a dead bird stuck in my chimney which was drawing flies into my house. Carl assessed the situation and applies a pesticide that got rid of all of the flies. Carl then followed up for two weeks to make sure the job was completed and no flies remained. I would fully recommend Raven Pest Control. Efficient and professional."

"Always a good experience with Green Pest Services.  Their technicians and managers thoroughly explain their process and what, if anything, they found. They are always prompt, courteous, and friendly taking special care with furniture, carpets, or anything that could get damaged.  I have called them out on a couple of special trips between quarterly servicing and get their usual professional attention.  All of the Green Pest team are great to work with from technicians, to managers, to the office staff.  Special kudos to Chris, one of their senior technicians, who has worked with me most often before he was promoted.  I highly recommend Green Pest Services.

"The company was incredibly responsive: a field representative came out the day of our request; and, the next day a very helpful and careful technician took care of the problem. He removed the two birds in the dryer vent pipe, kept them alive and watched them fly away! He cleaned out the nesting material, put an animal-preventative cover on the outside vent and sprayed a mite-control compound in the vent piping. All in all, a great experience with a company we strongly recommend."

Bird Control questions, answered by experts

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.

Woodpeckers may seek out homes with aluminum siding or tin roofs because these surfaces echo their drumming. Homes with wood siding are more frequently targeted as roosting areas or for food sources. If you have insects living in the exposed wood in your home, the birds are likely looking for a snack, in which case your best option is to hire an exterminator.

Some birds of prey, like owls, hunt at night. Hawks are diurnal and need good light to see their prey. You could see them circling anytime from dawn to dusk. Species like the common red-tailed hawk are most active in the early morning and late evening when their prey is also typically on the go.

There are DIY methods and store-bought pesticides available for the public to use. However, these pesticides also come with a risk, and you need to follow the directions correctly and take precautionary measures to prevent exposure to these chemicals. These methods may be an option for small pest problems, but you should call in a pest control specialist for persistent pests and infestations.

Birds are often averse to certain strong scents. For instance, the odor of predator urine, such as that from foxes or hawks, can deter them. Similarly, birds may dislike the pungent aromas of garlic, onions, and chili peppers. Essential oils like peppermint, eucalyptus, and citrus can also be effective in keeping birds away. However, it's important to note that individual bird species might react differently to these scents, so it might require some experimentation to find the most effective repellent for your specific situation.
