Why Alachua homes get birds

The sandy soil over limestone that surrounds Alachua is the starting point. It retains moisture at the foundation line, which is what birds need to thrive. The coastal plains, wetlands, and flatland adds harborage, and the subtropical and tropical climate keeps the activity going through most of the year. Homes on slab foundations, with crawl spaces, or near the the Atlantic, the Gulf of Mexico, springs, and lakes see the heaviest pressure. The older neighborhoods and the newer subdivisions each bring their own pest profile.

Prevention tips for Alachua homeowners

• Seal the access points into the eaves and the attic.
• Install deterrents on the ledges before the roost forms.
• Keep the roofline and the signs clean.
• Remove the food sources and the open waste.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. The spikes, netting, and wires make the surfaces unusable without harming the birds. The goal is to redirect them to a different roost.

Q: Why do the birds keep coming back?

Birds return to an established roost until the surface is made unusable. The proofing removes the roosting site, which is what breaks the habit.

Q: Do you clean up the droppings too?

Yes. We remove the droppings and sanitize the area as part of the service, because the accumulation is a health and maintenance issue.
