There are lots of pests that can be problematic to your home. Most people know that they have to hire a pest control service so that they are kept at bay. If you wait until you are seeing pests running around your house the problem is usually much larger than you might suspect. Most pests want to stay away from people and will do what they can to hide during the day. When you are dealing with a pest infestation they are often in the house and rummaging around your cupboards and behind your cabinets. There are other pests that are a nuisance and are a specialty issue that you will need to call a professional out to take care of. One of the things that you might come across are birds. You might be wondering how birds can be a problem for you and your house but they are a pest nonetheless. Animal Pest Management outlines why you need bird control for your home.
Birds Can Damage Your Roof & Home
One of the things that you want to consider when you start to notice that birds are nesting and roosting on your home is that they can and do cause damage. It might be cute to see a nest of sparrows on your roof getting ready to tend to their young but you need to be aware of the mess that they can make. They are known to cause damage to roofs, siding and more. The roof is being used as a place to nest and this will create moisture that will eat away the shingles or roof tiles. You also could find them tearing and chewing at parts of the roof that will need to be repaired. It is best to make sure that if you start to see birds of any kind on your house you call to have them moved and your home protected.
Nuisance Birds
Another type of bird that hangs out in neighborhoods and feeds on your trash and live around your house are pigeons. They are known to be more comfortable around people and will not always run when you walk by. They also can be found roosting on your home and when you are in the house you can hear their cooing all day and night. This is now also a noise nuisance that you have to deal with and can be an issue if you have sleeping kids or you work from home. The sound of a group of pigeons can and will come through the walls and vents and echo through your house.
Pigeon Diseases Via Droppings
You also want to make sure that you do what you can to protect your family from germs and disease. This is why you wash your hands and make sure that you eat good foods and get some exercise. Some birds including pigeons are known to carry disease and germs that they can leave on your home and surfaces that you can come in contact with and can make your family sick.
