"Very prompt and professional service. I had birds that opened the dryer vent on the outside of my home (30 feet off the ground) and began nesting. Shelton s came out with all of the correct tools to remove the nest, clean out the dryer vent and put a bird guard over the vent to prevent this from happening again. I highly recommend Shelton s!!!"

"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.

"They came when they said they would, even early. I was not sure if it was the sky light or somewhere else on the roof. It was the sky light. I did not want to fix the old sky light or put a new one in, so I had them remove the old sky light and cover the whole. It was the best and easiest job I had contracted. When I need to replace all of my roof, they are the ones I will give the job to. I was so pleased, I gave their name to my sister who was having to have here roof replace. They told her she only had to replace the roof over the new addition, instead of the whole roof, which they had been told by another contractor weeks before."

"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."

Bird Control questions, answered by experts

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.

When woodpeckers start banging on your walls or roof, they are probably looking for insects to eat, storing nuts for winter, drilling a hole to make a nest, or communicating with other birds to establish territory or find a mate.

The size of the hole can help determine the reason for the pecking. Small irregular holes are a result of insect hunts. Acorn holes are more consistently sized and often fitted with a nut in the middle. Nest holes are large and have rounded edges. If the bird is pecking to mark its territory or attract a mate, it may leave dents rather than holes, and the noise will stop when the mating season starts in spring.

DIY removal of birds or bats is not recommended due to safety risks and potential legal protections for certain species. While simple prevention methods can be done yourself, actual removal and control of an infestation should be handled by professionals who are familiar with safe, humane, and effective techniques.

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.

Identifying the specific animal running on your roof at night can be challenging without direct observation. Common nocturnal roof visitors include raccoons, squirrels, opossums, and rats. Raccoons are bigger and can create heavy thumping sounds. Squirrels are agile and may produce rapid scurrying noises. Opossums tend to move stealthily with less noise. Rats can make scratching or gnawing sounds. To determine the culprit, look for signs like footprints, droppings, or damaged areas near the roof. For accurate identification, consult a pest control professional or set up wildlife cameras near potential entry points.
