What Factors Warrant Bird Nest Removal?
Bird nests function as a home for a wide variety of bird species and should only be removed when necessary or certain other conditions have been met. Because so many birds are protected by both national and local laws, it is recommended that you consult with a wildlife removal or bird control specialist prior to performing any DIY methods. Some factors that warrant bird nest removal include:
- Abandoned or Unusable – It is not uncommon for nests to be abandoned after a breeding season, serving only as a memento of the species that had called it home. In these cases, it will typically be ok to remove them. By the same token, nests that have been damaged due to weather events or high winds will likely be abandoned as well.
- Poor Nest Placement – If a bird begins building its nest in an unsafe location, you will typically want to have the nest removed to preserve the safety of the species. For instance, bird nests that are constructed near active chimneys will typically not lead to a favorable outcome for birds that choose to nest there. If you find nests around your structure that are in dangerous or high-traffic areas, contact a bird control specialist or wildlife expert to move them to a safer location.
- Empty Birdhouses – If you have installed birdhouses around your property and the nests that are inside of them are no longer being used, you may need to remove them to accommodate new birds for the upcoming seasons. This is particularly beneficial just before winter arrives to provide reasonable shelter and protection from predators.
