Why Choose Us?
Why Is Bird Dropping Removal So Important?
You might wonder why you can't just hose down the mess yourself. The truth is, bird guano is highly corrosive and harbours a surprising number of pathogens. Leaving it to accumulate can lead to structural damage to buildings, block gutters, and create slip hazards on pathways and fire escapes. Beyond the physical damage, the associated health risks are a major concern. Our RSPH-qualified technicians understand the complexities involved in safe guano clearance and the importance of thorough decontamination.

Who We Are
Understanding the Health Hazards of Accumulated Bird Guano
Bird droppings can carry a range of diseases that are transmissible to humans, including Psittacosis, Histoplasmosis, and Cryptococcosis. These illnesses can cause respiratory problems, flu-like symptoms, and in serious cases, more severe health complications. Airborne particles from dried guano, or direct contact, are the main routes of transmission. That's why attempting DIY guano removal without the correct protective equipment is incredibly risky. As BPCA affiliated members, we adhere to the highest safety standards, ensuring the health of our team and your property's occupants.
