Qualified, Licensed and Insured!

Chimney Swifts, often called “flying cigars” due to their appearance, are protected under federal law. It is illegal to remove or disturb Chimney Swifts, their nests, eggs, or their young during their breeding seasons. These birds migrate to North America during the warmer months and migrate to South America in the colder winter months.

Since they are unable to perch or stand upright, they prefer tight spaces such as a chimney to roost and raise their young. Their presence in North American chimneys is seasonal and they are typically gone by the time you are ready to use your chimney.

We specialize in Chimney Swift Removal and complete Chimney Swift Control solutions.

Since they are only seasonal birds and their nests are small and do not pose any health or safety concerns, most homeowners are content with leaving them alone during the months they are in North America. If they are still in your chimney after the cold seasons have hit, they can be removed using wildlife exclusions. This is where a special netting or door is placed that allows the birds to exit but does not allow reentry.

It is always best to contact your local wildlife removal company, such as Nuisance Wildlife Rangers before handling any bird problems.
