North Muskham sits north of Newark beside the Trent and the A1. Its older houses and newer infill give pigeons eaves, porches and quiet outbuildings.
In a village close to the river, pigeons come from fields and water edges to rest on rooftops. Older houses give them deep eaves and chimneys, and newer homes offer simple porch roofs and garage tops. Garden outbuildings, such as sheds and summerhouses, add more landing places and often get overlooked. Summerhouses and sheds often have a flat or low-pitched roof that suits pigeons, and a small fix usually works.
We survey the house and outbuildings, find where droppings gather, and recommend only what the survey shows is needed. Wild birds are protected, so our methods are lawful and humane, and we check for active nests before work. You get a fixed price and free cleaning advice, with visits arranged to suit. Overhanging trees can drop leaves and twigs into gutters, so clearing them regularly helps.
Nesting wild birds are protected, so disturbing an active nest could be unlawful. We check first and advise on timing if a nest is in use. Older houses can have loose tiles, which provide a gap for birds to nest under.
Cleaning droppings safely and tidying food sources can help. Fitting proofing at height is better left to professionals for safety and a lasting result. Tell us if you have noticed birds in your loft, so we can plan to check inside as well.
No. Proofing is designed to stop birds landing or nesting, and the methods used must be lawful.
