Hearing Chirping or Scratching in Your Home in Des Moines?

 

If you’re hearing chirping in a bathroom vent, scratching in your ceiling, or seeing birds going in and out of a vent, you’re likely dealing with birds nesting inside your home. This is a common problem in Des Moines, especially in bathroom and dryer vents where covers are missing or damaged.

We also help homeowners dealing with bats in the attic, bats flying inside the home, or scratching and fluttering noises at night. We identify the problem quickly, remove it safely, and repair the entry point so it doesn’t come back.

🏠 Why Des Moines Homes Experience Wildlife Intrusions

 

Des Moines homes vary dramatically by age and construction style:

Older Homes:

  • Aging chimney systems
     
  • Loose soffits
     
  • Unsealed attic openings
     
  • Vent covers missing or damaged
     

Newer Homes:

  • Multiple vent openings
     
  • Endless roofline intersections
     
  • More complex soffit designs
     
  • Back decks ideal for sparrow nesting
     

This diversity makes Des Moines a major hotspot for both bat and bird activity.
