Professional Pest Control Services in Kettering

If you have pigeons roosting in the gutter the answer is to move them on and stop them coming back. This is best done with bird spiking, which is placed directly into the gutter. There will often be a building up of bird mess and possibly nesting material that we will need to remove to fit them, which is all part of the bird control and bird clean-up service. In these circumstances we may also spray for bird mites.

The reason birds roost on a roof is to offer them a vantage point, usually over an area they like to go to feed. That could be a field, and square, or a garden bird feeder.

If you have birds roosting on your window sills, again anti bird spiking is the answer as it will stop them landing there. The best way to fit bird spikes here depends on whether the window opens inwards, outwards or slides down or up. We either use silicone to attach them, or if the window frame is wood, we can screw them in.

It is quite common to have birds in chimneys at nesting time, because so many of them are not protected correctly and not in use. However, it is unlikely to be pigeons and so, if the birds nesting in your chimney already have eggs or young, the law on removing birds states that we need to wait until the young have fledged before acting. We can then install a chimney cowl, which lets the chimney breathe, but is the best way to stop birds getting into the chimney, and also stops rodents getting in. There are many different types of chimney proofing jowls. If you can, please email a picture of your chimney to us so we can advise on the best type.
