Residential Bird Control & Nest Removal in Okotoks
Birds may be beautiful outdoors, but when they start nesting on your roof, balcony, or inside vents, they bring noise, mess, and serious property damage. At YYC Pest Control, we offer humane residential bird control in Calgary, helping homeowners deter nesting and protect their homes from droppings, noise, and contamination.
Blocked vents, gutters, and chimneys
Health risks from droppings, mites, or parasites
Corrosion and damage caused by acidic waste
Fire hazards if nesting materials end up inside vents or flues
Common trouble‑makers include species like pigeons, sparrows, and starlings — all known to nest on homes and cause such issues.
Our Bird Control Process for Homes in Okotoks
We check roofs, eaves, vents, balconies and ledges to find nests, roosting spots or vulnerable nesting zones.
We set up humane barriers like netting, spikes or other deterrents to prevent birds from returning.
If birds have built nests or left droppings, we clean and sanitize affected areas to reduce health risks and unpleasant odors.
We guide you on how to make your property less attractive to birds — sealing entry points, removing nesting materials, and keeping vents and gutters clear.
