"A 2-man crew arrived the day after my initial contact with the owner of the business, who had called me the morning after I submitted my project. They promptly assessed the situation and set out traps for what they and I assumed were flying squirrels. As it turned out, the offenders were not squirrels but mice. The situation was complicated by the construction of my log home, but they managed to perform all alterations that were necessary to eliminate the problem. At this point, I am assuming that the problem has been solved. Time will tell. The crew who performed the work were knowledgeable, courteous, and concerned to get it right."

"Paul and his assistant Larry arrived on time and removed a very large hornet nest which was located very close to where we park our cars. They were very friendly and were experts at removing the nest. We had also been having problems with black wasps showing up in our bedroom repeatedly over the course of several weeks.  They investigated the attic and found several large wasp nests and removed them as well.  Before they came, we were averaging 3-4 wasps a week in our bedroom, but since they removed the nests, we haven't seen any.
Paul also walked around the outside of the house and told me where the wasps were likely getting in, and suggested ways that we could seal up cracks around windows and at the top of the house in order to prevent problems in the future.
We had a bat in our bedroom a few weeks prior to calling them. We were able to remove it ourselves, but we wanted to know if there were any other bats in the attic.  Paul checked the attic as well as possible outside entry points and found that there was no evidence of a bat problem.
The price was a bit steep, but considering the size of the nest and the number of wasp nests that were found in the attic, it was worth it to call in an expert to do what I didn't want to attempt to do.
Overall, we had a very good experience with Bat Bee & Hornet Removal Service, and if we have any more problems with critters, we will be sure to give them a call and would recommend them to anyone else.

"Davidson Roofing offered a competitive price for re-roofing my entire house (I had five estimates).  They completed the job in two days working at least 10+ hours per day.  They were efficient, professional, and thoroughly cleaned up all debris when the job was completed.  One area of my roof is fairly flat and required a special type of roof covering of which Davidson Roofing was knowledgeable.  We couldn't be more satisfied with the professionalism & service provided by Davidson Roofing.  I would not hesitate to recommend them.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
