Hear It From Our Happy Customers!

    Ron is AWESOME! I had a national pest extermination company for several years and nothing was getting accomplished. I have seen a significant decrease in the last several months that I started with 1st Response. Ron is very committed to getting the problem fixed and is very knowledgeable and a great guy! He knows his pests! :) Everyone at 1st Response is kind, courteous, and goes the extra yard!

    Company was very responsive to the needs that I had. My daughters room had hornets coming thru her ceiling. First response was the best response. They came right away after my internet message. Fixed the problem and offered a great service for other rodents around my house. Monthly service is a great deal. These guys know customer service and they know pest control. If you are thinking about a company that cares….this is it. Make first response your first response if you are in need of help.

    I live at The Gardens Apartments. I guess before I moved in, there was an issue with bugs. I never saw any. Thank God! But the gentleman from 1st Response saw something on the traps and came back several times to take care of the issue. He was always professional, polite and handled everything with care. Kudos!! I appreciate him and the service that you provide.

    Had a great experience with David - he was polite, personable, and able to find where the mice were coming in within 5 minutes. He put all the traps down and followed up on time to ensure they didn't return - highly recommend them!

    This company is great! The company I work for has been using them for years, and I have been using them recently for my home. David is so friendly when he comes in to my office, and Larry was great when he came to my home. Lisa is always the best too! So friendly on the phone!

    Andy R.

    We have a mouse or two and Larry was amazing. On time, professional. He even went into my attic through a very small, inconvenient entryway in the top of a closet. He educated me about mice and inspected every inch of my place, inside and out. The office staff was great, too!

    Rene L.

    We purchased a house that has had termite damage in the past. The original structure was built in 1890, and has been added onto over the years. Previous owners had repaired the termite damage, and had contracted with 1st Response to continue to maintain termite control stations and inspect for any new activity. We have continued with that existing service since purchase. Every tech that comes out is wonderful. Office staff is great as well. Everyone we have dealt with has been personable, kind, attentive and professional. Jason and Justin have been our most recent techs, and they are both great guys.

    Patricia M.

    Best customer service ever! From the dispatcher to the technicians. They were super kind and accommodating to our health needs, more than willing to wear an N95 mask that we provided. Engaging conversation and thorough inspection. Even when 1 thing was missed, they apologized and made everything right. Their service was fast, but effective. The price is reasonable for all of the services you get and they were very understanding and accommodating when it came to the initial payment. I wish we had found them years ago, but if anything good can come from a mouse, it's having First Response on your side. 100%, 10 out of 10, highly recommend!

    Izetta T.

    Holy smokes! They are the best! Like seriously, if you need creepy crawly help or help with other things that scurry about, they are your people. They are incredibly kind, friendly, and understanding. They have a lot of patience and explain things thoroughly. Can't say enough good things about them. We have been using them for a couple years now and have had continued reliable and excellent service.

Why Are Birds A Problem Around Columbus?

Birds can be a nuisance for a number of reasons reasons, but most of the problems they cause arise from their nesting behavior and the things they leave behind.

Common problems pest birds cause include:

  • Holes in the soffits of your home
  • Knot holes in your siding
  • Birds getting in through attic vents
  • Nesting material and fecal matter found in your garage, attic, or other areas
  • General property destruction from pecking or foraging 

Birds nesting and leaving droppings around your property isn’t just unsightly and unsanitary; it can be the beginning of costly property damage and other serious problems. While these problems are most prevalent in areas like the attic and garage, where birds can most easily access, the truth is that they can occur almost anywhere in an affected property.

Simply put, pest birds inside a home or structure are bad news. The longer you wait, the worse the problem will become. Luckily, 1st Response is here to help.

Why Commercial Businesses in Columbus Should Invest in Bird Exclusion Services

Commercial businesses should invest in bird exclusion services for a variety of reasons. For one, birds can cause a lot of damage to buildings by building nests and leaving droppings on walls and windows. This can lead to unsightly discoloration, corrosion, and other structural damage which can be expensive and time consuming to repair. Additionally, birds can spread diseases through their droppings which can affect both customers and staff.

In addition to the potential structural damage birds may cause, they also create noise which can be disruptive for customers or employees. Furthermore, bird infestations often attract other pests such as rodents which exacerbate the problem further. Therefore, by investing in bird exclusion services like netting or sound deterrents, businesses are helping ensure that their buildings remain safe and free from pests at all times.

Finally, implementing bird exclusion services is beneficial for the environment as well as it reduces the amount of bird-related destruction done to both man-made structures as well as natural habitats. Additionally, it ensures that migratory species are able to travel without being deterred or endangered by an artificial structure or presence in their path. 

Common Bird Exclusion and Control Methods

The most common bird exclusion and control methods include physical barriers such as netting, electrical track systems, and spikes. 

  • Netting is an effective form of bird control that creates a physical barrier between birds and their desired nesting sites. 
  • Electrical track systems are also a popular choice as they create an unpleasant sensation for birds when they land on the surface. 
  • Bird spikes can be used to deter birds from perching on ledges or other surfaces.

Additionally, sound deterrents can be used to scare away birds by emitting noises that mimic the distress calls of birds’ natural predators. Visual deterrents, such as balloons or plastic owls, can also be effective in scaring away unwanted birds while providing a more aesthetically pleasing solution than other options. Finally, chemical repellents can be used to create a bad taste in the mouths of birds to discourage them from visiting certain areas.
