Why Mountain Home homes get birds

Homes on slab foundations, with crawl spaces, or near the the Snake River and mountain reservoirs see the heaviest pressure. The older neighborhoods and the newer subdivisions each bring their own pest profile.

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