Bird Control Services Photo Album: Birds Nest Inside a Chimney Vent in Manasquan, NJ

Full of Nesting Debris

As you can see, the vent is loaded with nesting debris from nuisance birds.

Watch Out for Bird Mites

Here's another angle of the chimney vent. So we carefully sanitized and deodorized the chimney vent with a solution that targets bird mites. Bird mites are parasites that feed on the blood of birds. When birds leave their nests, the mites are left behind without a suitable host for their next blood meal. They will make their way into a home, and once inside they will take over, climbing all over your walls, ceilings, and beddings. To make matters worse, bird mites are tiny and semi-transparent, so they are extremely difficult to detect. Bird mites are the main reason why extreme care is needed when removing a nest. The last thing you want to do is disrupt the mites that are crawling in and around the nesting material.

After Removal

Afterward, we installed hardware cloth over the opened areas of the vent to prevent nuisance birds from filling it with their nesting debris.

Good as New

We then installed it back to it's original location.
