π¨ Handyman emergency: Starling Airbnb edition! π¦
West Sussex lady calls me in β her extractor fanβs playing host to a massive abandoned starling nest. They snuck in by removing a louvre from external filter, raised a family, and every time she switched it on the chicks went full panic mode cheeping! She kindly waited for them to fledge... until the smell hit!
Ended up ripping out the whole crusty hood + filter, taking it to dump, and fitting a brand new shiny one. Looks proper smart now!
Nest eviction + full upgrade sorted. Follow me for the next crazy discovery...no job too weird! π
