"Awesome company and great value. I called Nature Boy Wildlife late in the morning about a bat in my attic that I saw on a camera I had placed to see what kind of critter we had. Matt came out the same day and spotted the bat and also showed me evidence of mice. He spent quite a bit of time crawling around the entire perimeter of the attic to identify two possible entry points for the bat(s) and also set bait boxes in strategic locations for the mice. Rather than remove the bat, he set up a bat watch for that night to see how many bats exited--it was just the one. Matt and Alex came by two days later and found and removed the bat. Then they sealed both entrances, cleaned up all the bat crap, and disinfected the entire attic--both the attic over the garage and over the second floor. They were prompt, polite, concerned about our problem, and kept me totally informed, including phone calls to keep me updated on the visit schedules. I highly recommend Nature Boy Wildlife. They are honest, fair, and just nice people to work with."

FAQs for bird and bat pest control service projects in Lakewood, OH

You're likely to find nesting birds in external areas such as your gutters, eaves, porches, and chimneys. Some birds also nest in less obvious spots, like attics or even in your ventilation systems if they gain access. A reputable pro will conduct an inspection before starting any work to check for evidence of where birds may have set up roosting or nesting sites in your home.

Leaving birds to roost and nest on your home creates significant risks that affect both your home's structure and your well-being. The constant droppings, aggressive swooping, and persistent noise can damage siding, allow moisture intrusion, and stain exterior finishes. In addition, the birds’ pecking and droppings can spread diseases and parasites, which can lead to escalating repair costs and health hazards.

Yes, humane removal is possible and ensures that birds remain unharmed during the extraction process. Experts use proven methods to safely capture and relocate both birds and their nests to secure environments. Professionals employ stainless steel spikes as a deterrent while avoiding harmful techniques such as poisons or glue traps. You can rely on trusted specialists who strictly use safe, noninjurious methods, thereby protecting the birds while resolving the nuisance.

Yes, there are legal considerations when removing birds and their nests. You must adhere to strict local and state regulations, which safeguard protected native species during nesting season. Special authorization is required to remove protected birds, their nests, or eggs under the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. Observing these legal mandates avoids violations and ensures safe, responsible removal.

To prevent birds from returning after nest removal, you can implement deterrent methods. Installing stainless steel spikes creates a secure barrier that prevents birds from roosting without causing injury. In contrast, loose nets may entangle birds and other wildlife, creating additional hazards. A trusted professional will choose and install the optimal method to keep your home bird-free.

A bird’s nest remains viable for a period that depends on the species. The construction phase concludes within 2 days to 3 weeks, followed by a rearing stage lasting 2 to 10 weeks. Most birds become fully independent within 2 to 6 weeks, while certain predatory species require up to 2 1/2 months. This timeline can guide you on when it's safe to intervene.
