Bird Control & Exclusion in Southern California
Humane, effective bird control across Southern California, backed by more than 90 years of experience and a 100% satisfaction guarantee, with exclusion that holds up.
Common Nuisance Birds in Southern California
Control depends on the species and the structure, and it centers on humane exclusion rather than harm.
Pigeon
the most common urban pest bird. They roost on ledges, signs, and rooftops and leave heavy, corrosive droppings.
House Sparrow
small birds that nest in vents, signs, and eaves, often around commercial buildings.
Starling
flock in large numbers and nest in vents and rooflines, creating noise and mess.
Seagull
build mud nests under eaves and are protected during nesting season, which calls for careful timing.
Identifying the species and the roost points is what lets us exclude birds humanely and legally.
Signs of a Bird Problem
Bird problems show up as mess, noise, and damage around roosting spots.
- Droppings building up on ledges, signs, or walkways
- Nests in vents, eaves, signs, or rooflines
- Cooing, chirping, or flapping noises in the attic or vents
- Feathers and debris clogging gutters or vents
- Birds returning to the same ledges to roost
Why Birds Become a Problem in Southern California
Southern California’s mild climate, commercial corridors, and abundant ledges, signs, and rooflines give pest birds year-round roosting and nesting sites. Droppings are corrosive and a health concern, and nests clog vents and create fire and drainage issues.
Because birds return to familiar roosts, lasting control relies on physical exclusion such as netting, spikes, and barriers rather than scaring them off.
How Lloyd Pest Control Solves Bird Problems
We exclude birds from roosts humanely and clean up afterward.
Site Assessment
we identify the species, roost and nest points, and the right exclusion approach for the structure.
Humane Exclusion
we install netting, spikes, and deterrents to physically block roosting and nesting.
Cleanup & Sanitation
we remove droppings and nesting debris and sanitize the affected areas.
Follow-Up & Protection
we confirm the exclusion is working and adjust as needed, with ongoing monitoring available.
That approach keeps birds off the property for the long term.

Frequently Asked Questions
Lasting pigeon control is about exclusion, using netting, spikes, and barriers that physically prevent roosting, along with cleanup. Scare tactics alone do not work because pigeons return to familiar roosts.
Yes. Our approach centers on humane exclusion that keeps birds from roosting and nesting rather than harming them, and we follow regulations that protect certain species during nesting season.
They can be. Bird droppings are corrosive to buildings and can harbor pathogens, so professional cleanup and sanitation are an important part of the job.
Residential exclusion projects typically run $300 to $800, while commercial work is quoted by building and roost points. A free on-site assessment provides an exact price.
Good exclusion accounts for that. We identify the likely roost points and protect them, then follow up to adjust if birds try a new spot.
