Now We're Going to Keep the Bats Out of This Attic in Shrewsbury, NJ

Recently, our wildlife team was called out to a home in Shrewsbury, NJ, to remove bats that had infested the attic. The bats were infesting the attic by squeezing through the gable vent. A short while ago, we were able to successfully and safely remove all the bats from the home and disinfected the attic.

To prevent the bats from reinfesting the attic via the gable vent, we installed Pest-Blok over it. Pest-Blok doesn't restrict the airflow to the attic, undergoes a silicone-protected polyester coating process that makes it last longer, and guards the home against bats, squirrels, birds, and all other nuisance wildlife.

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. 

Starling Getting Into the Dryer Vent in Gladstone, NJ

This customer in Gladstone, NJ had a starling stuck in his dryer vent, so he contacted Bird Solutions for help and we were sent out. After setting up our retrieval devices we successfully and safely removed the starling out of the dryer vent. We then removed the nesting debris and then disinfected the area with a solution that targets bird mites. Bird mites are parasites that feed on the blood of birds. When birds leave their nests, the mites are left behind without a suitable host for their next blood meal and make their way into a home.

Lastly, to prevent any future nuisance bird intrusions, we installed a Defender over the dryer vent. The Defender is the perfect choice to help keep out nuisance birds. While allowing free-flowing air movement, its patented design effectively blocks intrusion by using a system of bars instead of a screen under the hood.

Starlings Harboring in the Chimney in Montgomery, NJ

We were sent out to a home in Montgomery, NJ to remove a number of starlings that were harboring inside the chimney. Starlings have a reputation of being the most annoying and common home-invading birds in the US. They are stocky black birds with short tails, triangular wings, and long, pointed bills. They nest in holes and cavities and often use holes in buildings — primarily dryer vents. The starlings have also had a negative impact on the US economy and ecosystem, which designates them as an invasive species. The uric acid in starling feces can damage paint, plastic, canvas canopies, corrode stone, metal, and masonry. 

A short while after setting up our devices, we safely removed all of the starlings out of the chimney. Now, in order to make sure that both the chimney's are protected from future intrusions, we installed a chimney cap over each one. A chimney cap is a heavy-duty material that's constructed out of 24 Gauge Top and Flange, and 18 Gauge Galvanized Mesh! It is designed to prevent access to the chimney from all nuisance wildlife and birds. Now both chimneys are properly excluded!

Maintenance Shop Needs Help Keeping the Pigeons Out in Lawrenceville, NJ

The owner of this auto shop in Lawrenceville, NJ had a bit of a conundrum. There wasn't any A/C in his shop, so he kept the garage doors open while servicing the vehicles to keep cool. The problem was that pigeons kept flying inside the shop and defecating all over the place. He didn't want to close the doors because it would get too hot in the shop but also didn't want the pigeons to nest in his work area. So he called Bird Solutions by Cowleys and we were sent out. 

First, we carefully removed all of the pigeon nesting debris and then disinfected the areas with a solution that eliminates bird mites. Once that was completed, we installed a roll up screen door made out of bird netting over each one of the garage doors. Bird netting is a 3/4 inch, heavy duty polyethylene bird netting that's used to humanely block the pigeons from entering any unwanted areas. It creates an impenetrable barrier that denies them, as well as all nuisance birds, the access to this area and removes the landing areas for them. Now the workers can keep the doors open and stay cool without worrying about pigeons pooping on them.
