Bird Removal
Nesting birds in vents, chimneys, and eaves block airflow, create fire hazards, and spread parasites.

Why Bird Removal Can't Wait
Birds like starlings, sparrows, pigeons, and woodpeckers frequently nest in dryer vents, bathroom exhaust vents, chimney flues, and under eaves. Nesting material is highly flammable and can block critical ventilation, creating fire and carbon monoxide hazards. Many bird species are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, making removal timing and methods legally sensitive. Our specialists handle bird removal in full compliance with federal and state regulations, using exclusion and deterrent methods that are both effective and legal.

Risks of Ignoring Birds in Your Home
Bird nests in dryer vents are a leading cause of dryer fires — highly flammable lint and nesting material accumulate together.
Blocked bathroom and kitchen vents allow moisture and carbon monoxide to build up inside the home.
Bird droppings (guano) are highly acidic and damage roofing, siding, and painted surfaces.
Histoplasmosis and cryptococcosis are fungal diseases spread through bird droppings that can cause serious respiratory illness.
Bird mites and lice from nests can infest your home and bite humans and pets.
Woodpecker damage to wood siding can allow moisture intrusion and structural decay.
Our Approach
How We Remove Birds
Inspection
We identify all nesting sites, assess the species involved (some are federally protected), and determine the safest removal approach.
Nest & Bird Removal
Active nests are removed in compliance with federal and state regulations. Timing matters — we advise on legal windows for removal.
Vent Cleaning & Repair
Vents are thoroughly cleaned of nesting material and debris, then fitted with bird-proof covers that maintain proper airflow.
Deterrent Installation
We install bird spikes, netting, or visual deterrents at problem areas to prevent future nesting without harming birds.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are birds protected by law?
Many species are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, which prohibits disturbing active nests with eggs or chicks. We navigate these regulations for you.
Can birds in my dryer vent cause a fire?
Yes — this is a real and serious hazard. Nesting material combined with lint is highly flammable. If you suspect birds in your dryer vent, call us immediately.
How do I stop birds from nesting in my vents?
The most effective solution is installing bird-proof vent covers with mesh screens that allow airflow but block entry. We install these after removing existing nests.
What about woodpecker damage?
Woodpeckers are federally protected. We use visual deterrents, sound devices, and physical barriers to discourage them without harming the birds.
How quickly can birds cause damage?
A pair of birds can build a complete nest in 3–5 days. Vent blockages can occur within a week. Early intervention is always less costly.
