"Justin, Cameron and Matt were extremely professional and friendly. Justin was great fitting me in last minute. Cameron and Matt came out and ended up working in the rain and dark! The only reason I knocked off one star was the "repair" they did on the squirrel damage. Maybe it was a misunderstanding on my part but I thought the damage would be fixed, when in fact they just put some metal sheeting over the hole. While the hole is closed up, I feel they basically put a band aid on my problem while I'll still have to hire someone to replace the wood, especially since the squirrel continues to chew on it. I do recommend Monumental Pest but I also advise you to be clear on any "repair" work they need to do."

"Cockroaches invaded our kitchen this year and termites moved into a stump in our yard. At our 1st meeting with John, we inspected the yard & main floor, then went over our options for a plan to attack. We arranged for a year's worth of termite treatment/protection outside in our very wooded area and began treatment for the roaches covering the kitchen & bathrooms. That day he immediately treated the stump plus a colony of ants that we found outside [whether we would have signed up or not so that was a bonus]. The technicians have been very polite & professional; great communicating when they're arriving, how long the work takes, and explaining any info we need to know about the process. The major Actisol treatment greatly reduced the roach investation. The latest tech Donald sprayed and baited the kitchen again this week and says to just call until they're completely gone. It looks like we're down to the last generation of these invaders thanks to Senate."

"At this point (just started about a week and a half ago) the issue has not been resolved as of yet, but the service that we have received has been excellent. Ricky Diggs, Vice President of Alexandria Pest Services, Inc. (APS) initially came out to review the issue. We had previously had four other companies come out to look at our issue and each one of them didn’t provide good feedback without being questioned and all tried to up-sale their products and required a year contract. With Ricky, he simple provided all the information on rat behavior, how they would approach the situation to resolve and monitor upfront. A week and a half into it and we have had four visits from APS. Kevin, the technician we have been working with is very professional and knowledgeable. So far we are pleased and will be even more pleased once the rats are eradicated. The office staff has been very polite as well."

You're likely to find nesting birds in external areas such as your gutters, eaves, porches, and chimneys. Some birds also nest in less obvious spots, like attics or even in your ventilation systems if they gain access. A reputable pro will conduct an inspection before starting any work to check for evidence of where birds may have set up roosting or nesting sites in your home.
Leaving birds to roost and nest on your home creates significant risks that affect both your home's structure and your well-being. The constant droppings, aggressive swooping, and persistent noise can damage siding, allow moisture intrusion, and stain exterior finishes. In addition, the birds’ pecking and droppings can spread diseases and parasites, which can lead to escalating repair costs and health hazards.
Yes, humane removal is possible and ensures that birds remain unharmed during the extraction process. Experts use proven methods to safely capture and relocate both birds and their nests to secure environments. Professionals employ stainless steel spikes as a deterrent while avoiding harmful techniques such as poisons or glue traps. You can rely on trusted specialists who strictly use safe, noninjurious methods, thereby protecting the birds while resolving the nuisance.
Yes, there are legal considerations when removing birds and their nests. You must adhere to strict local and state regulations, which safeguard protected native species during nesting season. Special authorization is required to remove protected birds, their nests, or eggs under the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. Observing these legal mandates avoids violations and ensures safe, responsible removal.
To prevent birds from returning after nest removal, you can implement deterrent methods. Installing stainless steel spikes creates a secure barrier that prevents birds from roosting without causing injury. In contrast, loose nets may entangle birds and other wildlife, creating additional hazards. A trusted professional will choose and install the optimal method to keep your home bird-free.
A bird’s nest remains viable for a period that depends on the species. The construction phase concludes within 2 days to 3 weeks, followed by a rearing stage lasting 2 to 10 weeks. Most birds become fully independent within 2 to 6 weeks, while certain predatory species require up to 2 1/2 months. This timeline can guide you on when it's safe to intervene.
