Bird Removal

Birds like pigeons, starlings, crows, and sparrows can create a bad public image with tenants and patrons. They can create safety issues for you and your family and increase maintenance costs and liability risks.

We don’t automatically think of birds when we hear the word pest. However, each year, nuisance birds and their droppings cause millions of dollars in property damage. In addition, their droppings can spread more than 60 transmittable diseases to humans and animals.

Common Missouri Pest Birds

If you look in your backyard, you will notice many different birds flying around. Most birds are happy nesting in trees and other natural shelters. Other birds don’t mind causing a bit of trouble. Some of the most common nuisance birds in the Kansas City & Kansas City area include:

  • Pigeons
  • Sparrows
  • Starlings

While these are the most common, other birds may find areas of your house an excellent place to set up their nests. It’s important to keep in mind that some species of birds are protected by law under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. This federal regulation makes it illegal for anyone to take, import, export, possess, sell, or purchase migratory birds, nests, eggs, or other parts without a valid permit.

Signs of a Bird Infestation

While birds are often beautiful and enjoyable to watch, nuisance birds or bird infestations are very problematic. Therefore, it’s essential to recognize the signs of a bird infestation before it causes a lot of damage and the need for costly repairs. Some of the common signs to look for include:

  • Droppings – birds droppings on roofs, paved areas, ledges, vehicles, or on goods
  • Birds Settling – on roofs, ledges, wires, and cables
  • Noises – continuous bird chirping and noises, especially from chicks
  • Bird Nests – Birds can make nests almost anywhere, look in gutters, beams, attic, roof, and ledges
  • Damage – Birds can damage siding and other structural parts of a house
  • Foul Odor – If there is a constant bad smell that cannot be blamed on the garbage or other rotting materials

Debris from the nests can cause clogged gutters and drainage systems. This can cause damage to walls, ceilings, and other parts of a house or property. In addition, birds often carry parasites like fleas, ticks, and mites that can bite humans and animals and create health problems.

Bird Nest Removal

As mentioned already, some birds are protected by federal laws. Therefore, it is recommended that you leave bird nest removal to professional pest removal experts.

Another reason why it’s essential to contact a professional is that the pathogens birds can carry make them dangerous to humans. Microorganisms from birds, transmitted in several ways, can cause a wide range of infectious diseases. These can be transmitted by handling the nests.
