Okay, maybe a slight exaggeration there, but really.
We've lived in this house for 3 years now, and blackbirds nest in the roof.
All. Year. Round.
Their gap seems to be directly above our bedroom window, meaning we can hear them all night scratching and moving about
In the morning, if we open the bedroom window they find this makes a useful perch for them to access their nest.
THEY ARE SO NOISY!
One nest a year wouldn't be an issue, but blackbirds dont ever leave their nests. The female and the offspring do, but the Male stays until he finds a new female. Then it starts all over again.
Is there any way we can get rid of them?
Our cat has brought 5 in in the past year and a bit, they still think it's a safe place to nest.
I know you cant move birds nests but are there any exceptions to this?! I'd love to have our bedroom window open this summer...
