"Got in touch with Catch Them Critterz through Angi to take care of a squirrel in the soffit problem.I first hired a company called Furs and Feathers. They came a set a trap, charged me $500, and never returned to check it for 2 months. They wouldn't even return my calls. Catch Them Critterz came out when they said would and caught the squirrel in 2 days. They followed up every day to make sure there were no more squirrels in the soffit before closing the entry hole. Problem solved in one week. Would definitely hire again or refer. True pros. Happy I found these guys."

While not common, bird’s nests can cause problems to your property in some cases.
Block vents for your dryer, stove, and fans, creating a fire hazard
Clog gutters and drains, leading to roof and siding damage
Damage solar panels
Wiring issues if the nest is on or near a light fixture
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.
You’ll want to call a licensed and insured wildlife removal company that offers:
Full property inspection—indoor and outdoor
Proper animal identification
Written management plan with follow-up visits included
DIY animal removal is rarely a good idea and is not advised for many reasons. First, these types of animals can carry diseases and, therefore, pose a health risk to you, your family, and your pets if mishandled. Second, depending on your city or municipality, it may be illegal to remove or handle wildlife yourself.
Sealing your home against these animals yourself is also a bad idea. Trapping an animal under your house will cause odor and insect problems when it passes away.
Once the animals and their young are out of the house, remove the nest and locate any entry points. Some may be difficult to find because some animals can fit through very small holes. Once you’ve located as many entry points as possible, use materials such as metal or masonry to block off the entry. Ideally, you should choose materials that most animals cannot chew through. Create a one-way door or flap to allow animals to leave but not return. Additional methods include using repellants designed to make an area unappealing to the types of animals that find your home so inviting.
