Sparrows Start Nesting in Exhaust Vents in Colts Neck, NJ

This homeowner in Colts Neck, NJ had a sparrow nesting in one of his exhaust vents, so he called Bird Solutions for assistance and we were sent out. The first thing we did was carefully remove all of the nesting debris. Afterward, we 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. Once inside, they take over and start feeding on the family! To make matters worse, bird mites are tiny and semi-transparent, so they are extremely difficult to detect!

Lastly, we removed the damaged exhaust vent and installed a DryerWallVent®. The DryerWallVent® is made out of heavy-duty galvanized steel and its large opening and angled damper provide maximum airflow efficiency for safe venting. Integrated magnets keep the damper closed when not in use, preventing pests, bats, and all nuisance wildlife from infesting the home.
