What birds are pests?
Not all birds are considered as pests, but there are certain breeds that afflict Canberra that are most definitely pests. Commonly, pest control is called to clear magpies, starlings, Indian Mynah birds, pigeons and cockatoos, the nosiest birds of them all. These birds are known for plaguing businesses and disturbing residential areas.
What damage can these birds do?
These birds can cause a wide range of problems at a property including the following:
During mating season birds can nest in your roof causing damage and making them aggressive. Birds may swoop at you or others and can cause serious injury.
- Flocks of birds can be very noisy and will disturb meetings and interrupt your rest when you are home.
