Higher ground above Arnold gives exposed roofs and open land close by. Pigeons drop in from the fields, so we focus on the surfaces they favour.
Homes on higher, more open ground catch the wind, and pigeons look for sheltered corners out of it: porch roofs, lee-side eaves, chimney bases and the back of dormers. With open land close by, flocks can drop in quickly and leave droppings on glazing, roofs and patios. We look for those sheltered spots and recommend proofing for them. Windows facing open land can collect droppings quickly in autumn, when flocks move around stubble and fields.
Gardens here may be larger, with outbuildings and greenhouses that offer more landing places. Wild birds are protected, so we use lawful and humane methods only. We explain the work, agree a fixed price and offer free advice on cleaning. Visits can be arranged around your schedule. Greenhouse roofs can be fragile, so we assess whether any fixing is possible before offering a price.
Often. Pigeons favour sheltered corners, so they may choose the lee side of the house. We check all elevations to find the real roosts. Ask us about the sunny side of the house, as warm tiles are another favourite resting place.
Deterrents or netting can be used on roof edges and ledges, depending on the structure. We assess it during the survey. A short description of the location when you call helps us arrange the visit sensibly.
No. Proofing is designed to stop birds landing or nesting, and the methods used must be lawful.

With fields and hedges close to the back fence, mice have a short journey to a warm house. A gap the width of a pencil is all they need to get in.
