Bird Removal
Sparrow
The common house Sparrow has made itself at home in New Jersey – and a pest, in some cases. Sparrows look for small spaces to nest, often taking up residence on (or in) homes and businesses.
The damage to buildings associated with a family of sparrows often includes inordinate amounts of droppings and nesting in eaves or vents.
Starling bird
A starling in the attic is usually the result of uncovered vents or openings in the exterior of a home. Starlings prefer to roost in tree cavities or small crevices but will choose an attic if these natural habitats are not available.
If there is a nest present, the starling in the attic is most likely male. They build these roosts in order to attract females during the mating season.
During this time, the birds are often territorial and hostile if cornered.
Bird’s nest removal
We provide Bird’s nest removal for all type of birds.
Dangerous roosts
Nesting starlings in the attic pose a serious health risk. The birds can transmit histoplasmosis, a fungal disease.
Over time, mold grows in the droppings beneath starling roosts. Airborne spores can spread through the house and cause infection.
Homeowners should not try to remove starlings from an attic. Not only is there a risk of disease and injury, but removing an adult bird may also leave behind nestlings that cannot fend for themselves.
