How to identify birds

Nuisance species around structures, chiefly pigeons, starlings, and house sparrows.

Behavior and habits

They nest in vents, signage, and ledges, returning to the same protected spots year after year.

Why birds are a problem

Droppings corrode surfaces and carry histoplasmosis; nests block vents and start fires.

How Antex handles birds

Our technicians confirm the species first, because effective control depends on it. Then we treat the source: nesting sites, harborage, and the routes onto your property, using professional products applied precisely. If pests return between scheduled visits, we'll come back and address the issue at no additional cost.

Prevention tips

Screen vents, install deterrents on ledges, and remove nests before eggs are laid.

Questions

What people ask us

Are birds dangerous?

Droppings corrode surfaces and carry histoplasmosis; nests block vents and start fires.

How do I get rid of birds?

Store-bought products usually treat the symptom, not the source, which is why the problem returns. Professional control pairs correct identification with source treatment. Call (435) 313-5882 for a free inspection and flat quote.
