Why Choose Us?
Understanding the Risks Associated with Bird Droppings
Many people underestimate the dangers of accumulated bird guano. This isn't just dirt; it's a biohazard. Bird droppings, particularly from pigeons and gulls, are highly acidic and corrosive, which can lead to significant structural damage over time. This includes corroding roofing materials, blocking guttering, damaging solar panels, and discolouring brickwork. More importantly, bird guano can harbour a range of pathogenic bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Conditions like Psittacosis, Histoplasmosis, and Cryptococcosis are serious respiratory diseases that can be contracted through inhaling airborne particles from dried droppings. Slips and falls due to wet guano are also a very real health and safety risk. That’s why professional guano removal is essential – it’s not a DIY job.

Who We Are
Our Expert Guano Clearance Process
At Moorlander Pest Control, we take guano removal seriously, prioritising safety and effectiveness. Our RSPH Level 2 qualified technicians follow a meticulous process:
- Initial Site Assessment & Risk Assessment: We first conduct a thorough evaluation of the affected area to determine the extent of the contamination, identify potential hazards, and assess the best removal strategy. This crucial first step ensures the safety of everyone involved and the property itself.
- Preparation & Safety: Our team arrives fully equipped with appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), including respirators, gloves, and protective suits, to prevent exposure to harmful pathogens. We also secure the area to prevent unauthorised access during the work.
- Professional Removal: We use specialised tools and techniques to carefully scrape and clean away all bird droppings, nests, and associated debris. Our methods minimise dust dispersal and ensure all waste is contained safely.
- Disinfection & Decontamination: Once the bulk of the guano is removed, we thoroughly disinfect the entire area using professional-grade biocides. This eliminates any remaining bacteria or pathogens, leaving the surface sanitised.
- Responsible Waste Disposal: All removed guano and waste materials are safely bagged and disposed of in accordance with strict environmental regulations, as biohazardous waste.
