Pigeons, starlings, and house sparrows are non-native pest birds — they nest in dryer vents and gable vents, leave corrosive droppings on signage and AC units, and create slip hazards and biological waste. We install netting, spikes, and vent guards humanely and within Migratory Bird Treaty Act compliance.

Bird control is heavily regulated by the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act, and 90% of native birds are protected. Get the species ID wrong and you’re looking at federal fines. Here’s how we stay legal and effective:
For commercial buildings, we file a service contract that covers the full property — signage, AC units, parking decks, ledges, and any nesting points. For residential, we focus on dryer vents, bathroom vents, gable vents, and tile-roof entries where birds get inside.
Florida Fish & Wildlife certified.
Most calls scheduled within 24 hours.
No poisons in living spaces.
Most native birds are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. Pigeons, European starlings, and house sparrows are non-native and not protected. Woodpeckers, hawks, owls, songbirds are all protected. We assess species first and stay within the law.

Bird droppings carry histoplasmosis and cryptococcosis — fungal infections from spores in dried droppings. Heavy accumulation corrodes metal and damages paint. We perform cleanup with HEPA filtration, neutralizing sanitizer, and proper PPE.

Real reviews from Central Florida homeowners we’ve helped.
Heard scratching above our bedroom for two weeks. Two other companies wanted to spray pesticide and call it done. Central Florida Trapper actually went into the attic, found the roof rat entry, sealed it, and replaced the contaminated insulation.

A raccoon tore through our soffit and was raising kits. They located the babies, reunited them with mom outside, sealed everything, cleaned the attic. Done in three days. Insurance paid most because the paperwork was so thorough.

Apopka, FL
Same-day for a snake on our pool deck. Turned out to be a non-venomous black racer, but they explained the difference, removed it safely, and didn’t charge us a panic fee. Will absolutely call again.

Most native birds are federally protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, including woodpeckers, hawks, owls, and songbirds. Pigeons, European starlings, and house sparrows are non-native and unprotected.
No. Modern bird spikes are humane deterrents — they prevent landing without injuring birds. Birds simply land elsewhere. Spikes are the most reliable long-term solution for ledges and signage.
Yes — once fledglings have left. We don’t disturb active nests. After fledging we remove the nest, clean the vent, and install a bird-proof vent guard.
Three reasons: marking territory, attracting mates, or finding insects in the wood. Woodpeckers are protected, so we use non-lethal optical and audio deterrents plus addressing any underlying insect issue.
