The sound of birds singing is one of the pleasant things about springtime. However, when these birds decide to build nests in your gutters, their presence becomes a lot less desirable.
To discourage your feathered friends from making a home out of your gutters, the trusted source of the best gutter guard system, Gutter Helmet® of Northern Minnesota, shares what you’ll need to do.
- Get some rubber snakes. One way to discourage birds from getting into your gutters is to place rubber snakes in the area. Snakes are their natural predator, after all. The downside to this, however, is that it only works for a limited time, and you’ll need to be careful that the snakes don’t fall into the gutters.
- Use sound technology. Another common solution is to spook birds off through high-frequency sounds and predator noises. You can do this by having a sound system installed. The cons of this plan is it can be expensive and will usually involve regular maintenance.
- Invest in a high-quality gutter protection system. Birds only nest in exposed gutters, so if you have them covered with effective gutter guards, this will no longer be a problem. Gutter Helmet of Northern Minnesota can help you with this. Our Gutter Helmet® guards provide the protection your gutter system needs to keep birds away. Not only that, but they help maintain your gutters’ superior draining performance by filtering out leaves, pine needles and other loose debris.
