Bird Control

Bird control looks different from most pest services for one big reason: most of the birds involved — sparrows especially — are legally protected, which means the goal isn’t removal, it’s making a roosting or nesting site unattractive or physically inaccessible. Citizen Pest Control installs netting, spikes, and deterrent systems sized to the species and the site, then cleans up what’s already accumulated.

Different birds, different approaches

Pigeons tend to favor flat ledges and roof lines and respond well to spike systems or netting. Sparrows nest in small gaps — signage, eaves, light fixtures — and usually need exclusion at the specific opening rather than a broad deterrent. Grackles roost communally in trees or on structures in large, noisy groups, and are typically managed with deterrents at the roosting site rather than individual exclusion.

Droppings are more than a cosmetic problem

Accumulated bird droppings on walkways, parking structures, and ledges create a genuine slip hazard and, over time, a health and corrosion concern — droppings are acidic and can damage roofing and structural finishes if left to build up. Cleanup and sanitization is part of resolving an established roost, not an optional add-on.
