There are three common signs that tell you birds are nesting\nnearby on your property. This is not always a bad situation, so long as birds\ndo not become a nuisance to your home or building. However, if you have nesting\nbirds on your property, the chances of developing a bird infestation problem in\nyour chimney, attic, and rooftop is much higher. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is wise to contact a local and licensed Indianapolis wildlife control company for professional bird-proofing services you can trust. But before you pick up the phone to schedule an on-site inspection, take a closer look at your property to see if the signs of nesting are present. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Natural Habitats for Indiana Birds<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
Bird nests are usually camouflaged in nature, or at least the best ones are. Since it is not likely that you will be able to spot one with your eyes, you have to pay close attention to other signs. First, if you have a property full of bushes, shrubs, trees, and overgrown flora, there is a much higher chance that birds are living nearby. If you live near a body of water, like a pond or creek, you can increase those chances even more.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Top 3 Signs to Look For:<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
\u2776 Destruction and Damage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Birds require materials to build their nests, so they will\nwander around your property collecting items like grass, feathers, trash, and\nmore. Look for torn up grass, grass clippings, de-threaded rugs, ripped window\nscreens, and down feather debris. These items are common materials used to\nbuild bird nests in urban areas. If you happen to see a bird with a beak full\nof similar materials, keep an eye on it to see where it goes. Hopefully, it\nheads to a bush or tree, rather than your roof or chimney.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2777 Concentrated Activity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Birds do not hang out in places without a good reason. If there is a concentration of bird activity on your property, but there is no bird feeder or bath nearby, it is highly likely that you have found their nesting area. Watch to see birds take flight to and from this area to get an idea of where the nest could be. Be especially on the lookout for pigeons and woodpeckers, as these native Indiana birds are known to settle quickly before winter comes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2778 Excessive Bird Chatter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Birds make noises, and most often, we enjoy the sounds of their chirps, chatter, and songs. But if you notice excessive bird noise on your property that sounds more like racket than harmony, it could be because you have a colony of birds nesting nearby. In fact, if you hear nasal whining sounds, it is likely baby birds hankering to be fed. Also, woodpeckers can be quite noisy with their incessant knocking and tapping noises, which can do a lot of damage to your home’s siding, roof, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
