Learn More About Pest Birds
In nature, birds are a beautiful sight and are very environmentally important; their numbers and vigor is a good indicator of the overall health of the environment they are living in. Birds transport and spread seeds and pollen and consume nuisance insects helping to keep their numbers down.
The natural territories of wild birds have become much smaller overtime due to the expansion of human territories; meaning that wild birds are now living in much closer proximity to people in urban, suburban, and rural areas. Because of this, some species have somewhat started to rely on people for food, water, and roosting and nesting areas, causing some big problems for both home and business owners.
Pest birds can be difficult to control and can cause significant damage to homes, buildings, and equipment. Birds will leave large amounts of droppings all over your property and will also introduce some pretty serious diseases to your property.
Their droppings are very acidic and can cause corrosive damage to building materials - causing them to break down overtime. Pest birds also carry and transmit a variety of diseases including: cryptococcosis, salmonella, and toxoplasmosis; they can also grow a fungus in their droppings that causes histomplasmosis. A build-up of their droppings on the ground can be quite unsightly and can lead to ‘slip and fall’ injuries.
Pest birds may clog gutters, soffits, chimneys, and vents by building their nests in or on them; also, their molted feathers may get inside of heating, cooling, and other equipment causing the machinery not to work properly.

Greg and his associate from Thomas Pest Services are great technicians. Very knowledgeable and professional. Greg was able to give me an in depth assessment of my home's issue. He then walked me through the steps necessary to reach my desired solution. I hope they don't have to come back, but if they do I want Greg.
Cole came to my house on Christmas eve for my pest services and was great! He was very kind, courteous, and knowledgeable. Mind you this was during a snow storm! 10/10 would recommend giving them a try!
They were in and out with great communication throughout the entire process. Job was done cleanly & in a timely manner. Also now my family can enjoy our backyard again in peace. Thank you again for the help!
Andrew called ahead to let us know he was on his way. Upon arrival he went over the plan for treating the property, and eradicating the yellow jacket nest. Andrew was pleasant and very professional. The work was completed quickly and thoroughly. He did a great job! We have used Thomas Pest Services several times and we’ve always had a good experience.
Jason was excellent and incredibly thorough. He did a complete search of our attic and took the time to answer all of our questions. He was kind and courteous. He also arrived in record time — we called on a Saturday morning and he was here within 15 minutes!!! I would HIGHLY recommend Jason as a technician in the future.
