Animal & Bird Nest Removal from Chimneys in Houston

Hearing scratching, chirping, or fluttering noises coming from your fireplace? A chimney is a perfect nesting spot for birds (especially Chimney Swifts), squirrels, and raccoons. However, these nests create dangerous blockages that trap deadly Carbon Monoxide in your home and are a leading cause of chimney fires. At 832 Chimney Services, we specialize in the safe, humane removal of animals and their nesting materials, followed by thorough sanitization to remove mites and odors.

Benefits Of Chimney Bird Removal Services

The Dangers of Nests: Fire, Disease & Blockages

  • Fire Hazard: Nests are made of dry twigs and leaves, perfect kindling. One spark can ignite the nest and start a raging chimney fire.

  • Carbon Monoxide: A nest blocks the flue like a cork. If you light a fire (or even turn on your gas logs), the smoke and odorless CO gas have nowhere to go but back into your living room.

  • Disease & Odor: Animals leave behind droppings, fleas, and mites. We don’t just remove the animal; we clean and deodorize the smoke shelf to protect your family’s health.

Prevent Future Infestations with Animal Guards

At our company, we believe prevention is the most effective long-term solution for chimney wildlife issues. After completing thorough animal and bird chimney nest removal, we install quality chimney caps and screens designed to keep wildlife out while maintaining proper ventilation. Subsequently, we inspect your roof, eaves, and exterior for potential entry points that might allow animals access to your home.

Frequently Asked Questions About Chimney Pests

FAQ: How can I safely remove the nest from my chimney?

You shouldn’t attempt this yourself. Birds like Chimney Swifts are federally protected and cannot be removed while nesting. Furthermore, wild animals can be aggressive or carry rabies. We use professional tools to remove the blockage safely from the roof or firebox without bringing the mess into your home.

Nests are the most common physical blockage. Even a small bird’s nest can completely stop the draft, causing smoke to back-puff into the room. Other causes include heavy creosote buildup or a collapsed flue liner.

The only 100% effective solution is installing a Chimney Cap with a heavy-duty mesh screen. This allows smoke to escape while creating a steel barrier that squirrels, birds, and raccoons cannot penetrate.

Answer: Ideally, address nesting issues after any migratory birds have left. A chimney sweep can inspect your chimney and advise when the nest is inactive, and recommend if removal, and also cleaning and a chimney cap are needed.
