Stop Birds from Entering Your Roof
Your gutters and other drainage fixtures can be an entry path for pest birds; WARNING don’t underestimate the damage they can cause. Indian Mynas, Starlings and Pigeons will build nests inside roofs whenever they’re given the opportunity; all three of these species are introduced pests in Australia. A complete gutter guard installation can totally seal entry gaps between the gutter and your roof edge. This stops pest birds from landing in your gutter and hopping up under your roof edge to enter your eaves space.
