The Hidden Dangers of Bird Guano
More than just unsightly, accumulated bird guano poses significant health risks and can cause severe damage to your property. Bird droppings carry numerous pathogens, including bacteria, fungi, and viruses, which can lead to serious illnesses like Psittacosis, Histoplasmosis, and Salmonellosis when inhaled or ingested. This is particularly concerning in enclosed spaces like attics, lofts, or warehouses where guano can dry and become airborne. Beyond health concerns, guano is highly acidic and corrosive. Over time, it can degrade roofing materials, stonework, paintwork, and even block drains, leading to costly structural damage and water ingress. Tackling this problem promptly is essential for the safety and integrity of your property.

Who We Are
Our Professional & Safe Guano Clearance Process
Clearing bird guano is not a job for the untrained. It requires specialist equipment and a strict adherence to safety protocols to mitigate health risks and ensure a complete clean-up. Our RSPH Level 2 qualified technicians are equipped with professional protective equipment (PPE), including respirators and full body suits, to safely work in contaminated areas. We begin with a thorough site assessment to determine the extent of the problem and identify the types of associated risks. Our effective removal process involves carefully scraping and vacuuming the guano using industrial-grade equipment designed to contain airborne particles. All waste is then safely bagged and disposed of according to hazardous waste regulations, leaving your area clean and decontaminated.

01822 668338Beyond the Clean-Up: Preventing Future Fouling
Simply removing the existing guano often isn't enough to solve a persistent bird problem. Without measures to deter birds from returning, your property could quickly become a fouling hotspot once more. As specialists in bird control, Moorlander Pest Control offers comprehensive solutions to prevent future guano build-up. Following the clean-up, we can advise on and install a range of humane bird deterrents, such as bird netting, anti-roosting spikes, or post and wire systems. For properties with solar panels, we also provide expert bird proofing services to stop birds nesting beneath them, protecting your investment from further damage. Our aim is always a long-term solution.
