Expert Bird Netting, Trapping, and Removal Services, Operating Across Chicago.
There's a big difference between enjoying birds at your backyard feeder, and dealing with pigeons roosting under your building's eaves, leaving droppings all over walkways where customers enter your business. Or sparrows nesting in your warehouse rafters, contaminating products below. Or seagulls taking over your rooftop like they signed a lease and forgot to pay rent. Here, we respond with humane methods that actually work long-term.

Our Trusted Partners
We use professional-grade products that pest control companies don't sell to homeowners for good reason – they require expertise to apply correctly, but they actually eliminate entire pest populations instead of just killing whatever happens to walk across treated surfaces.
We’re your local bird experts.
Birds don't care that your building is new or that you've tried every "bird repellent" product Amazon sells. In fact, pigeons, sparrows, and seagulls are remarkably persistent once they've decided your property works for them. Our bird netting, bird trapping and bird removal services work because we actually understand bird behavior – with Chelsea White calling upon 10 years of industry experience, and her mother Velma contributing 40 years of expertise studying birds, and importantly, how to effortlessly remove them.

Bird Netting
Bird netting creates physical barriers that actually prevent birds from accessing roosting areas – not just annoy them temporarily. We use commercial-grade materials with proper tensioning, preventing the sagging or gaps that birds exploit when contractors cut corners. Our installations cover loading docks, building facades, and warehouse ceilings where birds contaminate products below.

Bird Trapping
When birds have already decided your property is their forever home, bird trapping provides humane eviction, before we change the locks with exclusion methods. We use specialized traps designed for specific species, placing them where birds actually go, rather than where they're convenient for us, monitoring frequently to minimize stress.

Bird Removal
Our bird removal services address the entire mess birds create, not just the birds themselves. We humanely remove birds, clean areas they've treated like public restrooms, remove nesting materials that advertise "previous tenants loved it," and repair damage from their remodeling projects. Bird droppings aren't just gross – they're health hazards.
Exclusion Work and Repairs
Birds squeeze through openings you'd swear nothing could fit through. Our exclusion work seals entry points in soffits, eaves, vents, and facades properly – not the "stuff screen in there and hope" approach that fails within months. We repair damage birds caused and address weaknesses that invited them originally.

Why Choose Our Bird Control Services
Regulatory Compliance
We understand federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act protections, Illinois wildlife regulations, and Chicago municipal codes affecting bird control – so, you’ll never need to question whether our bird netting, bird trapping and bird removal services comply with all applicable regulations.
Humane Methods
Our bird control prioritizes humane treatment throughout removal and exclusion processes. We use methods that don't harm birds, while effectively solving your bird problem long-term.
Long-Term Solutions
We don't just scare birds away temporarily – we implement bird netting, exclusion work, and habitat modifications that prevent birds from returning. In other words, our solutions address root causes, rather than symptoms.
Industry Expertise
Different bird species require different control approaches. Our bird removal expertise – spanning over 40 years – accounts for species-specific behaviors and site-specific conditions affecting your property.
Your Benefits
Health and Safety Protection
Bird droppings aren't just unsightly – they actively transmit diseases, create slip hazards on walkways, and contaminate food preparation areas. Professional bird removal protects your family, employees, and customers from these genuine health risks.
Property Protection
When birds damage buildings, we swoop in to protect your investment. Their acidic droppings deteriorate building surfaces, nesting materials clog drainage systems, and persistent pecking damages insulation and wiring, in ways that create expensive repair bills.
Professional Appearance
Bird droppings covering your walkways, signs, and building facades create unprofessional appearances that directly affect business reputation and customer perception. Nobody wants to walk through bird mess to enter your establishment, so we won’t make them.
Compliance Assurance
Many industries face strict regulatory requirements regarding bird control and sanitation, particularly in food service, healthcare, and manufacturing sectors. So, we’ll keep you compliant, with the documentation to suit.
"My restaurant had a persistent fruit fly situation that was driving me crazy. Previous companies kept treating the symptoms. Ladybug Defense found the real culprit – a tiny crack near our prep sink that was creating the perfect breeding ground. Their eco-friendly pest solutions fixed it permanently."
"We had what I was sure was a horror-movie-level bat infestation. Turns out it was three bats who had found a cozy spot in our eaves. The animal removal process was so gentle, I almost felt bad about evicting them. They even helped us bat-proof the area so our little visitors would find somewhere more appropriate."
"I was convinced I needed the 'nuclear option' for my ant problem. Turns out, these tiny insects were just following a scent trail from my pet's food bowl. The Ladybug Defense team sealed a few cracks and moved the bowl – problem solved with zero chemicals. I felt pretty silly, but they were incredibly gracious about it."
"We had a raccoon situation in our Lakeview attic that we just couldn't figure out how to handle. The team at Ladybug Defense came out late at night when we called, removed the animals safely, and helped us understand how to prevent it from happening again. They were patient with all our questions and really knew what they were doing."
"Running a restaurant in River North means we can't take any chances with pest issues. We've been working with Ladybug Defense for three years now, and they've always been reliable when we've needed them. They understand the food service industry and work around our schedule."
"When wasps showed up during our daughter's graduation party, we were pretty panicked. The Ladybug Defense team came out quickly and handled everything without making a big scene. Our guests barely noticed, and we could get back to celebrating."

Our Technology and Methods
Commercial-Grade Bird Netting
We use UV-resistant, weather-proof netting materials designed for long-term outdoor installation, properly sized for target bird species.
Species-Specific Traps
Our bird trapping equipment is designed for humane capture and species-specific behavior patterns, monitored regularly to minimize stress.
Professional Deterrent Systems
We install bird spikes, shock tracks, wire systems, and other deterrents using proper spacing and placement that birds cannot circumvent.
Sanitization Equipment
Our bird removal includes proper cleanup using equipment and methods that address health hazards from droppings and nesting materials.
Step 1: Assessment
Those pigeons you're seeing have probably established multiple nesting sites you haven't discovered yet, like backup apartments they rotate between. We identify which bird species you're hosting, where they're nesting versus just roosting, every entry point they're exploiting, what's attracting them specifically, and what health hazards exist from accumulated droppings requiring immediate attention.
Step 2: Planning
Based on findings, we design bird control programs tailored to your specific situation, rather than generic solutions from sales pitches. We explain which methods we're recommending and why – whether bird netting to physically block access, bird trapping to evict current residents first, or deterrent systems for areas where netting isn't practical or aesthetically acceptable.
Step 3: Implementation
Our technicians install bird netting with proper tensioning that prevents sagging or gaps, while positioning trapping systems where birds actually travel based on behavior patterns, not convenient locations. We clean contaminated areas using appropriate safety equipment and seal entry points properly – more thorough than stuffing screen material in holes.
Step 4: Verification
We schedule follow-up inspections confirming our bird netting, bird trapping and bird removal achieved lasting results, rather than temporary peace. We maintain deterrent systems requiring periodic attention and address new bird activity before it becomes established. Our programs continue until complete control is genuinely achieved – not just when we've completed arbitrary visit counts.
Ladybug Defense serves Chicago with reliable pest control solutions, emergency exterminator services, and professional wild animal removal. We're available 24/7 because we understand that pest problems don't keep regular business hours.
