Where Birds are Known to Make Nests

Pigeons, starlings, and house sparrows are the most common nuisance birds. They can spread diseases and cause property damage. For example, dried pigeon droppings cause respiratory issues when spread by wind. Starlings build nests in any cracks they can find in homes or other structures. Sparrows are known to build nests in roofs, gutters, holes in the walls, and dryer vents. A nest in a dryer vent prevents the dryer from performing properly and may eventually result in a fire. Or, if the nest is in a roof vent, it can become too heavy and the birds can fall into the attic. Since the nests house mites, they will be spread around the attic area.

Damage and Disease from Birds

Birds can carry E. coli, salmonella, and meningitis. The diseases are transferred to humans through the birds’ droppings. Additionally, birds can carry fleas, ticks, and mites which can harm pets and impact the health of humans as well. Bird nests are the most common way to catch an illness as the fungi can be spread through debris. The droppings from birds also accelerate the aging of structures.
