Birds nests
« on: September 23, 2006, 03:45:39 pm »
Hi all ,

I think it swallows nests up in the points of roofs.

As the nesting season is nearly over are many of you paid a bit extra for taking them down.

Have any of you come across any pest control solutions for to stop them building next year.

There House Martins (and not the pop group)

I get a little more to take them down, and to clean all there c**p from the conservatory roof.

My advice is don't stop them returning the little bliters make us money every year.

One of my customers had these and the following year someone had put chicken wire across where the eaves met the roof truss ends. It worked.

Neat fairy Liquid dish soap squirted on or applied to the wall/surface by a pad fixed to an applicator works. They salivate with a mix of mud to get it to stick and they dont like the taste of the soap.
Thats a pint please.   ;)
