     To gain control of most birds it's necessary to look at what they are doing to create a nuisance. Are they nesting on the roof tops, under the eaves or Ac units or are they on some part of the structures and the droppings are landing in an undesirable location like the entryway to a home or business creating slip and fall hazards.

   Then the decision has to be made on the correct deterrent system to be used so the bird will not return to that location. Some bird deterrent Products work better than others in a given situation, that's why it is so important to know the habits and be knowledgeable in all deterrent systems to get the best results in correcting the bird problem.

Answers to some of you Questions on bird control  can be found on FAQ page

  • WHAT PEOPLE DO THAT ATTRACTS PIGEONS:

    Install fountains & lagoon-style pools   
    Leave dog food or water out         
    Lawn seeding or thatching
    Allow overgrowth on palm trees
    Standing water at plant base
    Feeding wild birds
    Buying homes with pillars and roof overhangs that provide protected nest sites
    Not doing something as soon as the birds move in

Please keep in mind that in most cases, birds that you have nesting on your property, have done so for a long time and it may take a few days to many weeks for the nesting or very dedicated birds to move away. When birds try to get past our work, then realize that there is no longer any comfortable places to set up residence, they will usually move away from your property to another location. They are living creatures with small brains that operate mostly by habit and instinct. No one can predict what they will do or where they will go.

The best method of eradication is simply taking away their nesting and roosting sites to make it uncomfortable for them to stay on your property.

DON'T BE SURPRISED at what may come down from your roof when we wash it. Some cement tile roofs have pieces of tile in the cracks and flashing when we wash down the roof, and it can look like a tile has broken. This is just from the original installation of your roof and is not tile breakage.
