BEFORE
Dryer vents can be dangerous and cause fires when not maintained. Tall Timber Wildlife Service replaced this Murrysville dryer vent exhaust and cleaned the dryer vent. Critters can and will access this vent to gain entry into your home. They will gladly build nests and enjoy residing with you.
We suggest inspecting your vent multiple times a year. The powder-coated exhaust covers are great at letting total airflow of the dryer and keeping critters out.
AFTER
Birds were able to sit on the ledge of these vents and lift the flapper to gain access to the bathroom vents. We installed powder coated steal vent covers to prevent re-entry. This is a long term solution that protects your home.
European starlings were getting into this Jeannette, PA home. Tall Timber Wildlife Service had to remove the soffit in order to be able to remove the nest.
After repairing the soffit to prevent more birds from entering, Tall Timber installed vent guards on the gable vents to prevent birds from entering the attic ever again.
These high-security vent covers will keep anything from raccoons to most flying insects out of your home.
Mrs. Starling has made herself a home and nest in this Adamsburg, PA attic. She has even gone as far as starting a family.
Did you know that starlings are very invasive? Smaller than a robin, they will compete with native birds for food and win! They will even attack native birds’ nests!
As small as they are, they create massive nests. Starling nests are so large that folks mistake them for owls, crows, hawks, or squirrels.
According to www.allaboutbirds.org, starlings didn’t always live in the US. “Originating in Europe, the birds were intentionally released by folks who wanted America to have all of the birds that Shakespeare ever mentioned.” Wasn’t that a brilliant plan?
If you, too, are invaded by starlings, Tall Timber Wildlife Services can (1) safely remove the birds and nests AND (2) repair the opening in the building.
