The Nuisance Nobody Thinks About: Why Birds Choose Your Home
Birds instinctively seek high, enclosed, protected areas that mimic natural shelter. Spaces around your home are warm, quiet, and dry, making them ideal nesting locations.
Most Common Nuisance Birds in the Southeast
- Pigeons: Highly adaptable and known for producing acidic droppings that damage roofing and siding.
- Blackbirds: Persistent nest builders, often aggressive around their nest with loud, early morning chirping.
- Chimney Swifts: Frequently nest inside unused chimneys, creating distinct rattling chirp sounds and scratching noises that echo through the flue.
The Hidden Entry Points Only an Expert Notices
Unlike squirrels that chew their way in, birds typically exploit existing openings. From our inspections throughout the Atlanta area, these are the most common entry points:
- Roofline Builder Gaps: Birds fly under shingles and above gutters where the roof deck does not meet the fascia, creating a gap.
- Soffit Gaps: Birds squeeze into small openings at seams or corners where the soffit pieces meet.
- Gable End Gaps and Vents: Older gable vents without proper screening allow direct access into the attic.
- Bathroom and Dryer Vents: Unscreened or poorly screened vents allow nesting, which may block airflow and create a fire hazard.
- Chimneys: Birds land on uncapped chimneys and quickly move inside, creating loud sounds that echo inside the flue.
Beyond the Mess: The Hazards of Allowing Birds to Remain
Simply ignoring birds nesting in or on your home poses serious risks that go beyond noise and inconvenience.
- Health Risks: Droppings and nesting materials may contain pathogens that can lead to respiratory diseases such as Histoplasmosis or Cryptococcosis.
- Structural Damage: Acidic droppings corrode roofing materials, metal flashing, and siding.
- Fire Hazards: Birds bring dry nesting materials like twigs and grass into vents and attics, increasing the risk of fire.
- Blocked Ventilation: Nests in vents restrict airflow, causing moisture buildup, mold growth, and increased energy costs.
Permanent Protection: Attic Kings Bird Proofing Solutions
Our goal is not only to remove nuisance birds humanely, but to secure your home against future entry.
Our Bird Exclusion Process Includes:
- Humane Eviction: We install a Safety Exit Bird Tunnel, a one-way device that allows birds to exit but prevents reentry.
- Roofline Reinforcement: Galvanized steel is installed over open roofline gaps, and soffits are sealed or repaired.
- Vent Protection: We screen or cover gable, bathroom, and dryer vents using heavy duty materials.
- Anti Landing Devices: For ledges and chimneys, we install bird spikes or other deterrents to prevent perching.
- Natural Repellents: We apply non toxic repellents to deter birds from returning to previously contaminated areas.
We prevent birds from reentering, restore sanitation, and protect your home’s structure and your family’s health.
