Bird Control
House sparrows, European starlings, and pigeons cause real damage to WNC properties. All native migratory birds are federally protected. We know the rules and use legal exclusion methods.
Bird Control You Can Count On
House sparrows, European starlings, and pigeons are the primary bird nuisance species in Western North Carolina, and unlike native birds, these invasive species are not protected under the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act, meaning removal and exclusion options are broader. Nearly every other bird species encountered in North Carolina, however, is protected. Chimney swifts, which nest in chimneys and are often mistaken for bats due to their twilight flight pattern, are federally protected and cannot be disturbed during the nesting season. Birds nesting in dryer and bathroom exhaust vents are a fire hazard and serious air-quality concern; blocked vents allow humidity and combustion gases to back up into the living space. We install exclusion netting, bird spikes, slope panels, wire systems, and chimney caps to deny access without harming birds. Each situation is assessed individually to identify the species and the appropriate legal method.

Bird Control - Questions & Answers
How do I prevent wildlife from coming back after removal?
Permanent exclusion, sealing every confirmed and potential entry point, is the most effective long-term prevention. Beyond the structural repairs we make, we advise homeowners on attractants: accessible pet food, bird feeders near the roofline, fruit-bearing trees adjacent to the structure, open garbage, and uncapped chimneys. Routine roofline inspections every few years can identify new gaps before the next animal finds them.
How do I know if I have a wildlife infestation versus a visiting animal?
If you hear noises on a regular schedule, particularly at the same time of day or night over multiple days, it is likely an established resident rather than a passing visitor. Repeat sightings, persistent odors, physical damage to the roofline or soffits, and droppings found consistently in the same location all indicate an animal that has settled in. One inspection is usually sufficient to determine whether you have a temporary visitor or a nesting animal.
Do you work on both residential and commercial properties?
Yes. We handle wildlife problems at homes, rental properties, vacation cabins, farms, outbuildings, and commercial properties throughout Western North Carolina. The inspection and exclusion process is similar regardless of property type. The goal is always to identify where the animals are getting in and permanently close those access points.
How do I schedule a wildlife inspection?
Call us at 828-538-1980 or use the contact form on this website. Have the property address and a brief description of what you are seeing or hearing ready when you call. We will return your call and schedule a time that works for you.
Is your removal process humane?
Yes. We use live trapping and one-way exclusion devices wherever applicable. All work is performed in accordance with North Carolina and federal wildlife regulations, which prohibit methods that cause unnecessary harm to wildlife. In situations involving animals with young, we account for the young animals' development to avoid abandonment or sealing juveniles inside the structure.
