With winter behind us and the warm weather ahead, now is the time to think about pest birds in Indianapolis. Not only does spring offer pest birds the warmth they need to be active, there are other reasons birds love spring and--more specifically--love being around our businesses during spring.
Seed
What bird doesn't love seed? If you plan to lay down seed to make your properties lawn thicker, you may be inviting pest birds onto your property. There are many birds that eat seed. But the secret to keeping your property safe from pest birds isn't to let your lawn grow thinner. With bird deterrents, you can manage how many birds congregate on your property, and reduce the number of birds feeding on your seed.
Nests
Birds love to build roosts, and spring is the perfect time of year to do it. What other season can they find sticks-a-plenty? But, when birds build nests, they can sometimes clog gutter systems and create the conditions for water damage to occur, not to mention clogged gutters will do nothing to protect your customers. While it is a good idea to rake up all those sticks, that isn't going to be enough to keep birds from roosting on your property. Bird deterrents let birds know they're not welcome to build nests around your business.
Water
When the snow melts away, moisture is left behind. This can cause the ground to be saturated, and more likely to have puddles form on top when it rains. But, once again, reducing puddles in your yard isn't going to be enough to deter birds. Fortunately, there is something that does. And, if you haven't guessed yet, it has the word "deter" in it.
Birds love spring for many reasons. But before those birds choose your property to roost on, or your wires to congregate on, put deterrents in place to gently let birds know where they're not welcome.

Now is the perfect time to put these in place. But, we have solutions for taking care of bird issues after they've taken root.
