Moorlander Pest Control specialises in the safe and effective removal of bird guano, ensuring your home or business in Sidmouth and the wider Devon area is clean, safe, and protected.
Why Choose Us?
Understanding the Health Risks of Bird Droppings
Dealing with large quantities of bird droppings requires expert handling due to the serious health risks involved. Bird guano is a breeding ground for various bacteria, fungi, and parasites that can cause severe diseases in humans. Common health problems associated with guano include Psittacosis, a bacterial infection sometimes known as "parrot fever," and Histoplasmosis, a respiratory disease caused by fungal spores found in dried bird droppings. When the droppings become dry and airborne, these hazardous particles can be easily inhaled, posing a significant risk to anyone in the area. Our team uses appropriate protective equipment and follows strict safety protocols during every guano clean-up operation to safeguard your health and ours.

Who We Are
How Bird Guano Damages Your Home or Business
Beyond the immediate health concerns, bird guano can inflict extensive and costly damage to buildings and infrastructure. Bird droppings are highly acidic, meaning they can corrode and degrade various building materials over time. We've seen first-hand the impact on paintwork, roofing tiles, lead flashing, and even structural elements. This corrosive effect can shorten the lifespan of your property’s exterior, leading to expensive repairs. Furthermore, heavy build-ups of guano can block gutters, cause water ingress, and create slip hazards on walkways and fire escapes. If you have solar panels, nesting birds and their droppings can severely reduce efficiency and cause damage, impacting your energy savings.
