What we see most in Decatur
Common Decatur calls: raccoons in crawlspaces along the river, bats in older Albany and Old Decatur chimneys, squirrels through aged soffits citywide, and snake-on-the-porch calls from late spring through early fall.

What you should know about bird control
Biology & Behavior
Starlings and sparrows nest in dryer vents, bathroom exhausts, and gable louvers. Pigeons roost on signage, ledges, and HVAC equipment. Woodpeckers drum on cedar and pine siding.
When this happens in Decatur
Nesting Mar–Aug. Outside that window is the optimal exclusion period. Protected-species nests cannot be disturbed mid-season without permits.
Alabama & Federal Regulations
Most native birds (including chimney swifts and woodpeckers) are protected under the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act; non-natives like European starlings, English sparrows, and feral pigeons are not.
Disease & Safety Risks
Histoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, and salmonellosis from accumulated droppings. Commercial cleanup is PPE-mandatory.
Materials We Actually Use
Bird netting (3/4" mesh for sparrows, 1.5" for pigeons), stainless spike strips, vent guards, electric-track for high-density commercial sites.
