Bird Removal & Control

Birds may be beautiful, but when they nest in vents, chimneys, or eaves, they bring noise, droppings, and potential health hazards. Pigeons, starlings, and sparrows frequently clog ventilation systems and create fire risks in homes and businesses.

We specialize in safe, humane bird removal, preventing birds from roosting in unwanted areas. Our methods comply with federal migratory bird laws while protecting your property from damage and infestation risks.

Why Choose Us for Bird Removal?

Birds may be beautiful, but when they nest in vents, chimneys, or soffits, they create clogs, mess, and fire hazards. Our professional bird removal services ensure safe, humane, and legal solutions for your property.

Vent & Chimney Bird Removal

Blocked vents lead to fire hazards, mold buildup, and trapped birds. We remove nests from dryer vents, kitchen exhausts, and chimneys while installing protective covers to prevent future nesting.

Humane Bird Deterrents

We don’t just remove birds, we stop them from coming back. Our team installs bird spikes, netting, and shock deterrents in problem areas to redirect birds to safer roosting spots without harm.

Legal & Ethical Nest Management

Many bird species are protected under provincial law. We ensure compliance with nesting season regulations, working only within legal removal periods to avoid disrupting hatchlings.

Mess & Dropping Cleanup

Bird droppings corrode buildings and spread disease. We handle guano cleanup, sanitization, and odour control, ensuring a healthier, cleaner space after bird removal.

How to Tell If You Have a Bird Problem

Birds nesting in or around your home can lead to blocked vents, fire hazards, and property damage. Here’s how to spot a bird problem:

Birds often nest inside dryer vents, soffits, and chimneys. If you hear persistent chirping or scratching, especially early in the morning, they may have set up a nest in your home.

A sudden drop in dryer efficiency or overheating issues can indicate a bird’s nest inside your vent. Birds bring twigs, feathers, and debris, which can restrict airflow and create a fire hazard.

If you notice large amounts of droppings, loose feathers, or nesting material near windows, balconies, or roof edges, birds may be living in your home’s structures. Guano can be corrosive and pose health risks.

If you see birds repeatedly entering and exiting a small hole or chimney, there’s likely a nest inside. Some species return year after year to the same nesting spot unless properly excluded.

Common Bird Problems & Risks

Birds nesting on or inside homes can lead to serious property damage and health concerns. Here’s what to watch for:

Birds commonly nest in dryer vents, chimneys, and soffits, restricting airflow and creating fire hazards. A clogged vent can lead to overheating appliances and carbon monoxide buildup.

Bird droppings contain high levels of uric acid, which can corrode paint, metal, and concrete. Left unchecked, accumulated droppings can permanently stain siding and degrade roofing materials.

Bird nests attract mites, ticks, and fleas, which can spread inside homes. Additionally, bird droppings carry histoplasmosis spores, a lung infection risk for humans.

During nesting season, birds like starlings and pigeons become territorial. They may dive at homeowners, especially near entry points, posing risks to pets and children.

Bird Removal: Frequently Asked Questions

In Southern Ontario, common nuisance birds include pigeons roosting on ledges, starlings or house sparrows nesting in roof vents, baby robin’s nests, and sometimes woodpeckers damaging siding. These species often seek shelter or nesting sites on homes and can create noise, mess from droppings, or even structural issues if not addressed.

Our technicians carefully remove birds using humane methods. If birds are in a vent or attic, we may install a one-way door or gently hand-remove them, ensuring not to harm any adults or chicks. We relocate any accessible nests to a safe location nearby (when allowed) and immediately secure the area so the birds can’t return.

The legality depends on the bird species. Many native birds and their active nests are protected under law during breeding season. Non-native species like pigeons, starlings, and house sparrows can usually be removed. We always identify the bird and follow Ontario’s wildlife regulations, ensuring any nest removal is done legally and ethically.

Yes, birds in your home can pose health and safety risks. Bird droppings can grow harmful fungi or bacteria that may lead to respiratory illnesses. Nests in vents can block airflow or even become a fire hazard. Additionally, bird mites or parasites from the nest can invade your living space. Removing the birds and cleaning the area helps protect your home’s health.

If there are eggs or chicks present, we take extra care. If the bird isn’t protected, we can relocate the nest nearby so the parents continue caring for their young. For protected species, we wait until the babies fledge, ensuring the birds remain safe while we resolve the issue.

For bird-proofing, block nesting sites and remove attractants. Install covers on vents and chimneys, use bird spikes on ledges, and trim tree branches away from the roof. Also keep garbage secure and remove accessible food. These steps make your home far less appealing to birds.

Removing a bird nest yourself can be risky. You risk falls or aggressive bird attacks, and you could break the law if the nest is from a protected species. Professionals can remove the nest safely and legally, so it’s best to let them handle it.
