Bird droppings, or guano, might seem like a minor nuisance at first glance, but they pose significant risks to both your health and property.

With 20 years of hands-on experience, we’re your local experts in managing this challenging problem.
Why Choose Us?
Why Professional Guano Clearance is Absolutely Essential
Attempting to clean large accumulations of bird guano yourself is not only unpleasant but incredibly dangerous. Bird droppings can harbour a range of nasty diseases, and disturbing them can release harmful airborne pathogens. Beyond the immediate health risks, the sheer volume and corrosive nature of guano can cause severe damage to your building's structure and even block drainage systems. Our RSPH-qualified technicians are equipped with the correct protective equipment and follow strict safety protocols to ensure a complete, risk-free cleanup for you and your property.

Who We Are
Understanding the Health Risks Associated with Bird Droppings
Many people aren't aware of the serious health implications of bird guano. Diseases like Psittacosis (also known as 'parrot fever'), Histoplasmosis, and Cryptococcosis are just a few of the airborne infections that can be transmitted through inhaling dust from dried bird droppings. These can cause flu-like symptoms, respiratory problems, and in some cases, more severe health issues. Our expert team ensures the site is thoroughly cleaned and decontaminated, significantly reducing any associated health risks for you and your family or employees.

01822 668338How Bird Guano Damages Your Property Over Time
Bird droppings are highly acidic, and when left untreated, they can cause considerable damage to various building materials. This corrosive action can etch into paintwork, roofing tiles, brickwork, and even metal, leading to costly structural repairs down the line. Beyond the corrosive damage, large deposits of guano can block gutters and downpipes, leading to water ingress and further damage. It also makes your property look unsightly and can attract other pests, like insects, looking for a food source. Our comprehensive service ensures all the damaging waste is removed.
