Bird Control and Bird Prevention in Tennessee and Georgia

Trapper Jack is Tennessee's and Georgia's pest bird control leader. We provide non-lethal, humane bird control, nuisance bird removal, and bird exclusion ("bird-proofing") in  Middle Tennessee and Metro Atlanta and Metro Atlanta East.

We provide non-chemical removal and exclusion of pigeons, sparrows, and starlings at locations including:

  • private homes
  • apartments, hotels, motels, and condos
  • airports
  • power plants and electricity generating stations
  • bridges and overpasses
  • shopping centers, malls, supermarkets, and office buildings
  • factories, warehouses, industrial parks, and other commercial buildings
  • churches, synagogues, and other houses of worship
  • government buildings

As Tennessee and Georgia leader's in humane bird control, we have the skill, the know-how, and the equipment to handle any bird control job -- no matter how big or how small. We can bird-proof virtually any building of any size ranging from private homes, to the steeples of historic churches, to huge power generating facilities. We've bird-proofed some of the biggest buildings in Tennessee.

But we do small bird control jobs, too; and we treat every job with the same level of care and professionalism. All of our clients are VIP's, and we insist on the same standards of excellence on ever job we do.

When do Birds become Pests?

Birds become pests when they create a physical or health hazard or when they damage or deface property. Some ways in which this happens are:

  • Large numbers of birds near airports cause a hazard to air travel.
  • Birds deface buildings, monuments, and vehicles with their droppings.
  • Birds and their can get caught in building ventilation equipment, dryer vents, exhaust fans, and HVAC ducts, sometimes causing damage to the equipment and spreading germs and allergens throughout the building.
  • The droppings of many birds contain pathogens that cause several serious diseases, such as histoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, and avian flu.
  • Ectoparasites living or feeding on birds can transmit a number of serious diseases including West Nile virus and other arboviral encenphalitides.

Other Nuisance Birds

In addition to the three species officially considered "pests," there are some other birds, such as woodpeckers and blue jays, that aren't technically considered "pest birds " but which may be excluded using humane, non-lethal means that do not injure them. Woodpeckers can be very annoying and destructive; but because they're protected by law, we are limited to repelling woodpeckers and, where possible, excluding them.

Bird Extermination vs. Comprehensive Bird Control

Tennessee pigeon control job. The many historic buildings in Tennessee and Georgia make bird control a real challenge.

There are many "bird exterminators" who use chemical poisons to kill or repel birds. Some of these products are lethal toxicants that kill birds, while others make the birds sick in the hope that they will fly away elsewhere.

In addition to the risks from chemicals, bird control achieved using chemical bird extermination simply isn't very effective. The results are temporary, at best. Sooner or later, new birds will replace the ones that were exterminated.

Our bird control program is different. Unlike chemical bird control programs typically offered by Tennessee and Georgia bird exterminators, our non-chemical bird control methods provide lasting control. In addition, our methods won't result in birds dropping dead in mid-air and falling out of the sky.

Our earth-friendly bird control approach includes:

  • Repairing structural holes and gaps that allow birds to get into attics, lofts, and other interior parts of buildings.
  • Bird netting and/or bird-repellent spikes are humane ways to bird-proof buildings and prevent birds from roosting on them.
  • Bird trapping may be used to remove birds already in the building.
  • Nesting materials, droppings, feathers, and so forth are meticulously removed to prevent health hazards from bird-borne pathogens.
  • When needed, chimney caps may be installed (or existing ones repaired) to keep birds and animals out of chimneys.

Bird Mess Cleanup

Our bird control service also includes cleaning up after the birds once they are removed. We clean up bird droppings, feathers and the rest of the mess the birds created in order to eliminate the health hazards that these bird by-products present to humans, domestic animals, and wildlife. Bird droppings contain microorganisms that can cause serious diseases like histoplasmosis and cryptococcosis.
