Final cost depends on severity, property size, and treatment method.
Scarborough has the widest range of pest problems in the GTA, and it comes down to the housing mix. The apartment towers along Lawrence and McCowan have chronic cockroach and bed bug issues — these buildings share plumbing risers, garbage chutes, and wall voids between units, and pests travel through all of them. Drive ten minutes east to Agincourt or Woburn and it is a different story: mice in the foundation walls of 1960s bungalows, raccoons ripping through aluminum soffits, carpenter ants in the older split-levels with water damage around the bathroom windows. Highland Creek runs through the middle of the district like a wildlife highway, and the Rouge Valley on the eastern edge brings everything from raccoons and skunks to coyotes right up to the backyards in Malvern and West Hill.
Our Bird Removal Process in Scarborough
Inspection
The technician identifies the bird species, maps all roosting and nesting locations, and assesses the extent of the infestation. Pigeons, sparrows, starlings, and house finches each have different nesting habits and require different control methods.
Treatment
Bird netting is installed over roof areas, eaves, and balconies where birds roost. Bird spikes are applied to ledges and flat surfaces. Wire systems are installed where netting is not practical. The goal is to make roosting physically impossible without harming the birds.
Prevention
Bird droppings are cleaned and disinfected with commercial-grade enzyme cleaners. Nesting material is removed. Follow-up inspection 2–4 weeks after installation confirms the exclusion is holding. Annual inspections are recommended for commercial properties.

Why Hire a Professional in Scarborough
-
Pigeon droppings contain histoplasmosis fungus — a respiratory illness. Large accumulations on commercial rooftops require professional remediation with proper PPE.
-
Birds nest in eave troughs and roof vents, causing blockages and water damage. A single sparrow nest in a roof vent can block airflow and trap moisture that rots surrounding wood.
-
DIY bird spikes are installed incorrectly 80% of the time. Professional installation ensures the system actually works.
-
In Ontario, many native bird species are protected under the Migratory Birds Convention Act. A professional knows which species require special handling.
-
Without exclusion, birds simply move to a different part of the same building. Professional bird control addresses every roosting and nesting site simultaneously.
