The problem with pigeons is pigeon droppings. Not only are they unsightly, but can damage buildings, monuments and automobiles, as well as harm people's health if allowed to accumulate.

The Snake Chaser will remove pigeons, as it is the most effective solution for problematic pigeons, but he will also provide other long-term solutions to pigeon problems, such as repairs and deterrents. Attic and soffit vents must be properly screened to keep nesting pigeons and other birds and animals out of your house or building.

To deter pigeons from loitering on railings wire barrier may be used to throw the birds will be off balance when they attempt to perch. You can also discourage them from roosting on flat surfaces like ledges by using boards or sheet metal to create a 45-degree or greater slope.

Excessive and regular feeding of pigeons with bread, table scraps and even birdseed supports their increasing numbers. An important part of controlling pigeon populations is to limit the amount of feeding by humans. Ask The Snake Chaser about ways to humanely deter a pigeon problem in or near your home or business

Starlings are frequently considered pests because of the damage they cause, especially to agriculture. They are black, light-speckled, robin-size birds with a chunky, meadowlark shape. Starlings eat fruits and seeds of both wild and cultivated varieties, as well as insects, like grubs in lawns or pastures. Starlings also eat livestock rations and food found in garbage during the winter.

At livestock facilities, starlings consume feed and contaminate the feed and water with their droppings. Where high protein supplements are added to feeds such as cattle feeds, starlings may selectively eat the high-protein portion.

Starlings may also transfer disease among livestock facilities. They cause other agricultural damage by eating cultivated fruits such as grapes and cherries. In some areas they pull sprouting wheat and other grains and eat the planted seed. Starling roosts in rural and urban sites cause health, filth, noise, and odor problems. Their droppings damage and deface equipment and vehicles. In addition, starlings compete for nest sites with native hole-nesting birds such as blue-birds, flickers, woodpeckers, and purple martins. They can be found in dryer and exhaust vents as well as porches and balconies.

The term "hornet" is often used to refer to many wasps that build large papery nests. The most notable paper wasp is the baldfaced hornet, and several species of yellowjackets, which are really wasps. Baldfaced hornets may be best described as large, black and white, heavy-bodied wasps about ¾" long. They typically build exposed, mottled grey nests in trees or shrubs. Occasionally, the wasps will build nests under roof overhangs, in attics, crawlspaces and wall voids, or under decks or porches. The nests are constructed of a paper-like martial formed from chewed wood. The nests are often described as "football shaped", but they may actually be bigger than a basketball in diameter. Yellowjackets are house fly-sized wasps with distinct yellow and black markings and a few hairs. They construct a similar type of paper nest, but it is usually tan in color and much smaller compared to the hornet nest. It’s also usually found in an underground cavity. Common locations for nests are in lawns, particularly in sandy exposed areas, as well as at the base of trees or shrubs. Occasionally, yellowjackets will nest in attics or walls voids of houses or storage buildings. Yellowjackets, in particular, may be pests around picnics, trash cans, and humming bird feeders. The only way to control this situation is to locate and destroy the nest. As an alternative, keep all outdoor food and drinks covered, except while actually eating. Trash cans should be kept covered. In spite of their reputations, hornets and yellowjackets are actually beneficial because they prey on many insects that we consider to be pests. They also serve as food for other bears, skunks, birds, and other insects.
