    Birds getting in under dry verge?

    We've seen them specifically entering via this point, house sparrows I believe. We can hear them scratching and flapping throughout the night/mornings definitely across the back wall rather than the wall with the eaves, although that could still be an entry point. There are no signs in the attic...

    Starlings and other birds!

    Hiya, I'm looking for a little advice on what I can do about a bird problem we seem to be having. I'm pretty sure we had some starlings nesting a little while ago. We could see them entering somewhere above the guttering, and could hear them scratching and scraping every morning (It almost...
