Well, it's been at least nine days since we notified the office about the birds above our door and the constant droppings. I sent two e-mails to the office neither of which were returned. I followed up and called one lady in the office and set up a work order to get it fixed. Maintenance came and made the problem worse by sealing the live birds up in the eaves and leaving them to die. He promised to come back yesterday and check and never called or showed up. I spoke to another leasing agent on Friday and told her about the live birds being trapped and she gave me the runaround saying maintenance was busy working on air conditioners.
In the five days since I spoke to her no one in the office returned our calls and no one from maintenance showed up to fix the problem right. So after getting nowhere with management I called the health department who sent an inspector over. I explained the problem to him and showed him the nest directly above the door and all of the droppings below it. He agreed that it was a problem and said he would get it taken care of. Now within three hours of him being here maintenance has showed up with a ladder. I guess that's what it takes to get anything done. Courtyard Square likes to talk about their great maintenance but they couldn't care less that birds are shitting on tenants heads until you get the health department involved.
We will wait and see how this attempt at fixing the problem goes.
