Bird removal in Swarthmore
Bird Removal in Swarthmore, PA
Birds nesting in vents, chimneys and gaps at the roof edge.
What you are dealing with
What you can see is usually part of it.
Old chimneys, attic louvers and kitchen and dryer vents are where starlings and sparrows like to nest. Once a nest is built, birds come back to the same spot every spring.
We take the bird and the nest out and fit a cover, a screen or a chimney cap, so the opening stays open for air but closed to birds.
Any of these help us work out what is in there.
- Chirping inside a vent or the chimney
- Nest material sticking out of a vent or a louver
- Birds flying in and out of a gap in the trim
- A bird stuck in the fireplace

What to know about bird removal.
Which birds can you remove?
Starlings, house sparrows and pigeons. Many other wild birds and their active nests are protected by law, so their nests may have to wait.

Close the glass doors or the damper, keep pets away and call us.
Will they come back?
Not once the opening has a cover. Without one, they come back to the same spot each spring.
