"They came over the same day and within 30 minutes had gotten rid of the birds nest and covered it with a pest cover. And they found another vent in the soffit that was missing a cover and patched that up as well. Great service, job well done, very responsive. Could not be happier with the service. Thank you."
"Justin came out the same day I called and began the process of setting traps for squirrel removal. He also sealed and secured the attic and other vulnerable areas. Excellent knowledge and work!"
"Jason and assistant were very prompt in time of arrival, and took great care to explain everything relating to the clearing of birds nesting within multiple air vent outlets of our home. Work was completed in a timely manner and appeared to be effective in resolving the problem of the birds that had invaded our air duct outlet vents. Additionally, Jason took extra care in safely extracting a couple of baby birds and after reconstructing their nest, placed that nest in a nearby tree to allow those infant birds a chance of survival success."
"We were having a problem with squirrels in our attic. We had a roofer repair the entry hole, but after about 6 months, the squirrels chewed two new entrances into our attic, one of which was right next to the original repair. We decided weâ d best contact a wildlife removal company. After calling several companies, we were impressed with Nathan, the owner of SoloCal Wildlife Removal. He was polite and informative. He took an online screen shot of our home and indicated on the photo where he thought our house was vulnerable, and he was exactly right. We asked him to come out and give us an estimate because of his initiative and professionalism. We ended up selecting SoloCal Wildlife Removal for the reasons above, but also for his reasonable pricing, and the fact that he is a local small business owner. Nathan promptly took care of our squirrel problem and thoroughly and neatly repaired the entry holes. Plus, he guarantees his work for a year. We would certainly recommend him to others."
"Yes, they were everything I wanted to have done. Avispa’s employee did an excellent job. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for pest control."
"I have been a customer of Bugg Busters Inc. for 15 years. I met the owner Gary Ward at one of my rental homes on the first visit. He was honest and told me that nothing was needed at the home in the area of Termite work. I started using Bugg Busters after that at all my rentals and at my home. Bugg Busters completed waterproofing at my office in Lincolnton last year. I had water pouring in from the road out front of my office. The Bugg Busters team installed a drain system and treated my building for termites. They also put down plastic to control the moisture. My favorite service they offer is the EZ Breathe which is a house ventilation system. No more bad odors from my dogs or from that crawl space. I have the Ez Breathe at my home, office and my mothers house. I will continue to use this company for years to come."
"They did a great job. They solved all the problems I had with the chimney and it’s been working perfectly ever since. They also fixed a problem on the roof around the chimney; they replaced the wood around the chimney with a material that would never rot, so they fixed it even better than it was before. It took them a couple of days to do the work. They took care of all the cleanup as well. We've been real happy with them."
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.
In most cases, a mother bird will return to a disturbed nest after the disturbance has passed. However, it can be hard for a mother bird to find a relocated nest. So, while it’s false that a mother bird will abandon her nest if it’s been disturbed, it’s not a good idea to relocate a nest with live babies or eggs in it.
Depending on the size of your home and accessibility, expect professional pest inspections to take between 30 and 60 minutes. If you have a large property or limited accessibility, pest inspections may take longer.
To keep animals out, you must prevent them from entering. As long as they can get in, the problem will persist. That said, consider making your attic less inviting using deterrents like motion-activated lights or ultrasonic devices. Additionally, keeping a well-maintained, clean, and uncluttered attic that you regularly inspect for activity may make the space less attractive to critters.
Some animals, such as bats or birds, will be able to get out of chimneys on their own since they can fly. Other animals, however, may have a harder time and will require the help of a professional to escape. Squirrels and raccoons in particular may become stuck inside a chimney, especially if you have a buildup of soot or creosote inside. This can prevent them from being able to climb out, in which case you’ll need to call an animal control expert to help remove them.
