Nesting Birds in Your Vents or Chimney? June Is the Time to Act

Birds are an essential part of our local ecosystem, but when they nest in chimneys, bathroom vents, or dryer ducts, they quickly become a nuisance—and a potential hazard. June is peak nesting season in Delaware, and many homeowners in Lewes, Rehoboth Beach, Milton, and Ocean View are discovering the sounds of chirping, fluttering, and scratching inside their walls or vents.

Bay Area Wildlife Solutions offers humane bird removal and nest prevention services to keep your home safe and protected this summer.

Why Birds Nest in Homes During June

Birds love quiet, covered areas that offer protection from predators and weather. Unfortunately, your home’s:

  • Dryer vents
  • Bathroom exhaust vents
  • Chimneys
  • Roof soffits or eaves

…make ideal nesting spots.

This can lead to:

  • Clogged dryer vents, increasing fire risk
  • Bird mites or parasites entering your home
  • Structural damage from droppings and debris
  • Noise disturbances—especially early in the morning

Common Signs of Nesting Birds

  • Chirping or fluttering sounds in your vents or fireplace
  • Bird droppings around exterior vents or rooflines
  • Visible nest materials like twigs or feathers
  • Reduced airflow from vents or exhausts
  • Odors coming from clogged ducts
