How to Keep The Nuisance Birds Out of the Vents in Pennington, NJ

This homeowner in Pennington, NJ had a bit of a nuisance bird issue - a starling had taken up residency in her exhaust vent and started to build a nest. Fortunately, we were sent out to stop it from completing its' nest. To do that we installed a customized one-way device over the exposed exhaust vent and temporarily enclosed the area with hardware cloth. The one-way is a device that allows the starling to leave an area safely but is designed to prevent it getting back in. After some time had passed, we had safely removed the starling from the property.

We then carefully removed all of the nesting debris and then disinfected the exhaust vent - in order to eliminate any bird mites that may be lingering around. In order to properly exclude the starling, as well as any other nuisance birds, from getting back into the exhaust vent, we installed a DryerWallVent® over it. The DryerWallVent® is made out of heavy-duty galvanized steel and its large opening and angled damper, along with integrated magnets to keep it closed when not in use, provide maximum airflow efficiency for safe venting.
