How to keep birds out of your gutters

Gutters suffer from buildup of debris and damage from more than just leaves and ice. Birds often use gutters as spots to rest, congregate and build nests. These behaviors allow the buildup of waste, insects, and materials that are unhealthy for humans and pets. Birds also place weight on gutters edges and strain seams.

Follow these two simple tips to protect your gutters from birds year-round:

– Install repellent products, such as mesh, spike or flashing strips. Additionally, consider using odor products and sound devices meant to deter birds with or without decoys designed to look like common local predators.

– Hire a gutter installation company to update your gutters with covers/guards that not only prevent birds from sitting inside of gutters and gripping onto gutter edges with their claws, but also block the buildup of leaves and other debris.
