Bird Exclusion
Bird Netting & Control in Greenfield, CA
101 Exterminators installs bird netting in Greenfield for pigeons, European starlings, and house sparrows, along with ledge spikes, tile closures, and slope hardware that keep birds off a structure without harming them. Produce coolers and loading docks along the El Camino Real corridor draw the flocks, and the tile rooflines and open eaves behind them are where those birds roost overnight. CA licensed, SPCB Lic. #9119.
Warning Signs
Signs You Need Bird Control Service in Greenfield
We install heavy-duty UV-stabilized bird netting to exclude birds from rooftop HVAC areas, loading dock ceilings, solar array undersides, and decorative architectural features. Stainless steel ledge spikes are installed on parapet walls, window ledges, signage, and other flat roosting surfaces. Electric deterrent systems, wire systems, and slope hardware are available for specific applications. We also remove active nests and clean up accumulated droppings with appropriate biosafety precautions.

How It Works
Our Bird Control Process in Greenfield
Every job follows the same methodical approach — no shortcuts, no guesswork. Here is what to expect when you work with us in Greenfield.
Survey & Pressure Assessment
We document all roosting and nesting locations, species present, and the structural and sanitary conditions created. We assess approach points and preferred perching locations.
Sanitation & Nest Removal
Before installing exclusion hardware, accumulated droppings are removed and affected surfaces are disinfected. Active nests are removed in compliance with migratory bird regulations.
Exclusion Installation
Netting, spikes, wire, or other deterrents are professionally installed and anchored to prevent bird access to treated areas. Installations are designed for long life and aesthetic integration with the structure.
Monitoring & Maintenance
For commercial facilities, we offer periodic inspection to confirm exclusion integrity and address any gaps created by maintenance activities or structural changes.

Common Questions
Bird Netting & Control FAQs for Greenfield
Can birds be kept out from under the tiles on a Greenfield roof?
Yes. The open half-round at the end of each barrel tile gets closed with tile-end closures, also called bird stops, which block the cavity without changing how the roof looks or drains. This is the most common residential bird job we do in Greenfield, because sparrows and starlings nest in that opening on almost every tile-roofed house in town. The nest material comes out first and the closures go in after, otherwise you seal the problem inside.
Do the starlings around Greenfield's produce docks need different exclusion than pigeons?
Yes, mainly because of size. European starlings and house sparrows pass through openings a pigeon cannot, so netting for them uses a smaller mesh — pigeon-grade netting lets sparrows straight through. On a Greenfield cooler dock we usually net the open bays and ceiling at the smaller specification, spike the ledges, and close the vent hoods and roofline gaps. For pigeons, the flat ledges and horizontal roosting surfaces are the priority.
Is it legal to take down a bird nest on my Greenfield building?
It depends on the species and whether the nest is active. Pigeons, European starlings, and house sparrows are non-native and are not protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, so their nests can be removed. Most other birds are protected, and an active nest with eggs or young has to be left until the young have fledged. The dependable approach is to install exclusion before nesting season starts, so nothing establishes in the first place.
