Specialist Cleaning
Birds such as pigeons, gulls and starlings have become  major pests in urban areas.

These birds can generate large amounts of droppings and related guano waste on external areas of buildings, inside roof spaces and derelict buildings.

There are several serious health and safety concerns related to bird droppings and associated waste which are categorised as follows :
  • Organisms developing  in birds and passed to humans, e.g ornithosis. This organism is found in the bird gut, Infection from the gut, nasal and eye secretion contaminates fouling, feathers and nesting material which can survive  many months in dry dust and droppings. Disease transmission to humans is caused through inhalling the contaminated dust.
  • Organisms feeding / growing in birds nests e.g. Flies, Lice, Fleas, Insect ticks, Mites but also fungi that can also cause severe and sometimes fatal lung tissue infections
     
  • Organisms picked up and spread by birds e.g Salmonella and other diseases from contaminated foods, sewage plants, and agricultural sites.
 EnviroGuard's bird work team decontaminate and treat fouling with Insecticide and Biocide prior to removal, reducing the risk of disease transmission and secondary infestation from bird related insects.

All Pesticides used in the control/treatment of fouling are selective and applied to ensure public safety. Methos statements & risk assesments will be completed before work commences.
