Bird Control in Austin, TX

Birds belong outdoors—but when they start invading your home or business, they bring more than just noise and mess. In Austin, common species like pigeons, sparrows, and grackles often roost on rooftops, ledges, and balconies, leaving behind droppings and property damage. If left unchecked, these birds can trigger health issues and create long-term maintenance problems. That’s where professional bird control makes a difference.

At Roberts Termite & Pest Control, we offer effective bird control solutions tailored to Austin's climate, architecture, and wildlife. Our approach focuses on prevention, not just removal. We work quickly to identify the root of the problem and implement humane methods that discourage birds from nesting or roosting on your property—without violating local wildlife protection laws.

Why Bird Control Matters in Austin

In Austin’s warm, urban environment, birds find plenty of nesting spots and open access to food sources. Over time, their presence causes more than just inconvenience. Their droppings contain uric acid, which corrodes metal, stone, and paint. As the buildup grows, the damage worsens.

The health risks are equally serious. Birds can carry diseases like histoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, and psittacosis. Their droppings also serve as a breeding ground for fungi and bacteria, which may circulate through your HVAC system, especially if the infestation occurs near vents or ducts. Families with allergies or asthma face an increased risk of respiratory irritation. Business owners may also see customers deterred by the sight or smell of bird droppings around entrances or patios.

Humane, Long-Term Bird Control Solutions

Our team focuses on humane, long-term deterrents instead of temporary fixes. We never rely on harmful tactics. Instead, we deploy physical barriers, visual deterrents, and non-toxic repellents to discourage birds from nesting or roosting near your home or workplace.

Some of our most effective tools include:

• Bird netting to block access to rafters, overhangs, and balconies
• Spikes and slope panels to prevent birds from landing on ledges
• Reflective surfaces and predator decoys to trigger birds’ natural avoidance instincts
• Ultrasonic sound devices that repel birds without disturbing people or pets

Each strategy addresses the specific species involved, and we always account for the layout of your building and surrounding area. This attention to detail allows us to build a bird control plan that fits your property—not just a generic solution.

Local Knowledge, Proven Results

Founded in 1959, Roberts Termite & Pest Control brings over 60 years of experience to every project. As a locally owned and operated company, we know Austin’s neighborhoods inside and out. That familiarity with local architecture and wildlife behavior allows us to respond quickly and deliver solutions that stick.

Our technicians receive ongoing training to stay current with industry standards, state laws, and emerging technologies. We focus on customer education as much as service execution. That means we explain what we’re doing, why we’re doing it, and how you can keep your space bird-free moving forward.

Compliant with Austin Wildlife Regulations

Bird control in Texas comes with legal requirements. Certain bird species fall under federal and state protection, and mishandling them—even unintentionally—can lead to serious penalties. Our team follows all Texas Parks & Wildlife Department guidelines and ensures full compliance during every service call.

We take the guesswork out of bird control by handling permits, following ethical practices, and keeping you informed. Whether we’re installing deterrents or sealing potential nesting areas, we always act within the bounds of Austin’s conservation laws.

FAQs About Bird Control in Austin, TX

What bird species cause the most problems in Austin?
In Austin, property owners often deal with pigeons, sparrows, and grackles. These birds thrive in urban environments, nesting in rooflines, signage, gutters, and HVAC units. They leave behind droppings, feathers, and nesting debris, which clog drainage systems and deteriorate building materials.

How do I prevent birds from nesting on my property?
Remove food and water sources, seal off potential nesting spots, and keep ledges or overhangs clean. Installing netting, spikes, or other deterrents makes your property less attractive. Our technicians assess the layout of your home or business and provide specific recommendations for long-term prevention.

Are bird control methods safe around children and pets?
Yes. We only use non-toxic, humane methods that deter birds without harming your family or animals. Our visual and ultrasonic deterrents won’t disrupt your daily life, and we take extra precautions when working in homes with pets or small children.

Why should I hire a professional instead of trying DIY bird control?
DIY products may provide short-term relief but often fail to address the source of the problem. They can also lead to accidental violations of state wildlife laws. Our team evaluates your property, identifies contributing factors, and implements legal, long-lasting deterrents based on the specific bird species involved.

How quickly can you provide service?
We offer same-day bird control services throughout Austin. After your initial call, we dispatch a technician to evaluate the situation and begin implementing solutions right away. Fast response time helps prevent further property damage and health risks.

Will the birds come back?
Not if you address the root causes. Our deterrents, combined with strategic habitat modification, make your property unappealing for birds. We also provide follow-up guidance so you can maintain a bird-free space without needing frequent visits.
