"They were very thorough with the inspection and the team sealed all gaps to prevent birds from getting in and nesting in my house. They arrived to do the work on time and were professional and courteous."
"Nathan is very personable and thoroughly explains what he can do for the client and points out other preventive measures to take. I needed bird nest removed from vent about 12 feet above ground. After that he put cages (from Menards) over 2 of the vents. After that he caulked on the roof and eaves any locations that could cause bee/wasp nest or possibly bats. He went beyond what I hired him for. I will call him again when/if needed. He takes pride in his work."
"Steve arrived on time. He was unable to find the dead critter in question, but inspected my home and closed up a few suspected points of entry. He was very accommodating and professional. I would recommend him to anyone needing critter control."
"I had originally contacted Birds and Bats service, but they were too expensive, did nothing to help. I moved on to Michigan Animal Control and they are amazing, have good information and service. I hired them and they will help me with getting rid of bats and any other animal issues."
"I wanted a pest control treatment, but more than that I wanted to know what caused the insects to suddenly be in my house. Pest Control Solutions was very knowledgeable and let me ask questions until I understood what was happening in my house and what they were doing about it. They pinpointed where insects were coming in so I could have it fixed permanently, rather than trying to upsell me a permanent exterminating service like other companies did. I feel like I got lucky when I found them, and I really cannot recommend them highly enough."
"Did a great job! Nathan and Jacob caught and picked up a raccoon on my property. While they were there a bird got stuck in my pellet stove, and they were able to get it out safely."
"My experience with bat removal services has been excellent. A bird control program was conducted a few days ago, and it appears to be working. They are also cost-effective and reliable."
Chirping noises, droppings, scratches on the walls, and stains at entries and exits are all signs that you have bats in your house or, more specifically, your attic. Because bats are nocturnal, there’s a chance that bats have already infested your home before you start to see warning signs, so don’t delay if you notice anything. If you see a bat or two at sunrise or sunset near your property, that’s another telltale sign that they could be setting up shop inside your space.
Regular cleaning, proper food storage, sealing entry points, and professional inspections help prevent infestations.
They can have a deterrent effect on birds to some extent. The reflective surfaces of these objects, such as aluminum foil strips, CDs, or reflective tape, create flashes of light and movement that can startle or confuse birds temporarily. However, some birds can become accustomed to these visual disturbances over time and might adapt their behavior accordingly. For a more sustained solution, combining shiny objects with other deterrent methods shared here is often beneficial for creating a more comprehensive and effective strategy for bird control.
Birds eat grass seed for one simple reason—it’s delicious! The seeds are rich in nutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Seeds are also high in energy, so humans eat trail mix loaded with seeds and nuts for long-distance activities. Grass seed, when unprotected, is also exceptionally easy to access.
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.
