"Bat Bee & Hornet Removal Service didn't do much. It was not very effective. They were on schedule on whatever we agreed. The only problem is that they weren't that effective. They didn't get rid of the wasps. They showed up and there is nothing negative but it just didn't work. To a friend or relative, I would just say that it is not worth the money."

"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

Legal considerations include adherence to local and federal wildlife protection laws, particularly for species that might be protected or endangered.

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.

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.

It's advisable to avoid using harmful methods to eliminate birds. Poisoning birds is inhumane and can have unintended ecological consequences, affecting other wildlife and pets. Similarly, using firearms or other lethal means poses safety risks and could be illegal in many areas. Sticky substances like adhesives can cause birds to become trapped and injured. Lastly, playing excessively loud or distressing noises can stress birds and humans. Focusing on humane and environmentally responsible strategies is essential when dealing with bird issues.

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.
