Safeguarding Your Health: The Risks of Bird Guano
The health risks associated with bird droppings are often underestimated. Guano can harbour a range of dangerous pathogens, bacteria, fungi, and viruses that become airborne when disturbed. Inhaling these spores can lead to serious respiratory illnesses and infections. Conditions like Psittacosis, a bacterial disease often linked to pigeons, can cause flu-like symptoms, and in severe cases, pneumonia. Other risks include Histoplasmosis and Cryptococcosis, which affect the lungs and can be particularly dangerous for individuals with weakened immune systems. That's why attempting DIY guano removal is never advisable – your health and safety are paramount.

Who We Are
Beyond Unsightly: How Guano Damages Your Property
Beyond the significant health risks, bird guano is highly corrosive. Over time, it can cause severe damage to your building's structure, roofing, and paintwork. The acidic nature of bird droppings can degrade metals, brickwork, and even stone, leading to costly repairs. Accumulated guano can block gutters and downpipes, leading to water ingress and damp issues inside your property. It also creates a slip hazard on pathways and can clog ventilation systems, posing a fire risk in some instances. Prompt, professional removal is essential to protect your investment.

At Moorlander Pest Control, our guano removal process is meticulous and prioritises safety.
