Birds are a resilient species. As creatures of true flight, birds are good at protecting themselves since they are capable of choosing the most remote and out-of-reach places to nest. They have first pick of the tallest trees, natural landings, cliffs, and hillsides. And although this is good for survival purposes, it tends to pose a bit of a problem for homeowners since birds often choose to make their nests on roofs, and in gutters, chimneys, vents, and attics. These areas are the most common places to find bird infestations in both residential and commercial properties. Houses and buildings with tall trees surrounding their property or tree canopies covering their rooftops are at higher risk of nuisance bird problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hazards Posed By Bird Infestations<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The top nuisance bird species in Indiana include pigeons,\nstarlings, grackles, crows, and house sparrows, but woodpeckers, crows, and\nwaterfowl follow closely behind. It is important to resolve a nuisance bird\nproblem before it can turn into a destructive infestation. If you already have\na bird infestation on your hands, it is equally important to get professional\nassistance as soon as possible. The longer you wait to remedy a bird\ninfestation, the more damages can accumulate, which will add to the total cost\nand time it takes to renovate the mess. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

More unfavorably, bird infestations can pose several health risks, including transmissible respiratory diseases and lung infections such as histoplasmosis <\/em>and cryptococcosis<\/em>. They can also pose risks of lice, bird mites, fleas, and other parasite invasions. Bird eggs are also a target for snakes, which means a bird infestation can quickly lead to a nuisance snake problem too. Be sure you know the signs of a bird infestation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
