Bird Nests in Gutters

Gutter with Bird Nest
From time to time, birds love to make a nest in your gutters.  These nests will cause several issues.  They will block water from properly reaching your downspouts, and squirrels will come and take the bird eggs.  One preventative measure is to have a gutter guard installed.  But the nests that are already there will need to be taken care of first.  You could remove the nests yourself, but it is not suggested that you climb on a ladder and potentially fall.

Harbinger Pest Control can handle your nests in gutter issues for you.  With their Rodent Control services your gutters will be free of nests and other types of debris.  You home or commercial building should be checked regularly for any type of pest or insect using their Annual Home Guard services.

Contact us for your Rodents, Mice, Rats, Insects and Animal Control, Extermination and Removal needs.

Mosquito Treatment for Grass and Yard

It's that time of the year when we start seeing many mosquitoes in our yards.  These nasty critters can infect children, pets and adults with diseases.  Plus, they are just plain annoying.  There are many preventative ways that you can deal with mosquitoes in your grass.  You can try...

  • Cut your lawn on a regular basis,
  • Eliminate standing or stagnant water,
  • Burn insect resistant candles, and 
  • Put up a bug zapper.

If the above does not work, then you have come to the right place.  Harbinger Pest Control has Mosquito Treatments for your property. If the job is too big for you, then contact us for your Mosquito Treatment for your grass and yard.

How to Protect your Outdoor Bird Feeders from Pests

For some, there is no better way to relax than to watch birds fly into your bird feeder so they can be fed. Or bathe in a bird bath, or sleep in your bird house.  Why not, you spent the time and money to give our flying friends a place to live for the day.

But birds have their foes that they need to evade.  Bats, foxes, squirrels, and snakes can interfere with the birds' sanctuary.  There are things that you can do to protect these birds.  You can safeguard your bird feeder with mesh and try to deter animals that can climb a pole or scale a tree to invade your feeders or houses.  You can also make sure that bird seeds are not on the yard.

But what happens if these measures do not work, what can you do?  Harbinger Pest Control has solutions to protect our outdoor friends.  Please contact us for and ask how we can help.
