Check your chimneys during mild winters

With just a few days until Christmas, most people should be well into their season of burning with their stoves and open fires. However, the unusually mild winter has resulted in many people yet to strike a match yet. But this weather has also confused the local wildlife, evident by spring daffodils already out in bloom. The more concerning thing for us is the activity of the birds. Rather than waiting for spring, some are already starting to make nests, with such birds as Jackdaws and Crows favouring a chimney pot and stack. We have already had requests for bird guards to stop such activity, and with no end in sight of the mild weather the situation is only going to get worse, as the birds search for a nest site, and people are not feeling the need to light their fires.
