Safe Removal and Full Decontamination. Done Properly.

Bird and bat guano is more than an unpleasant mess, it is a genuine health hazard. Dried guano contains bacteria, fungi, and parasites that can cause serious respiratory illness when disturbed and inhaled. It is also highly corrosive, causing lasting damage to roofing materials, metalwork, and building facades if left untreated. Professional guano cleaning and decontamination is the only safe and effective solution.

Guano removal & Decontamination

Our specialist guano cleaning team safely removes bird and bat droppings from roofs, loft spaces, ledges, gutters, and commercial premises using appropriate PPE and specialist cleaning equipment. We carry out a full decontamination of the affected area following removal, treating surfaces with approved biocidal products to eliminate pathogens and restore the space to a safe, clean condition. All work is carried out in compliance with relevant health and safety and wildlife protection legislation.

Heavy guano accumulations on roofs and roof tiles safely removed and the surface decontaminated. We also advise on deterrent measures to prevent roosting birds from returning.

What our clients say

FAQ's

Find answers to common questions about our guano cleaning service.

Is guano really a health risk?

Yes. Dried bird and bat guano can contain Histoplasma, Cryptococcus, Salmonella, and other pathogens. When disturbed, guano dust can be inhaled and cause serious illness. Professional removal with appropriate PPE is essential.

Is bat guano cleaning subject to special rules?

Yes. Bats are a protected species in the UK, and any work in areas with active bat roosts must comply with wildlife legislation. We are aware of these requirements and will advise you appropriately before any work begins.

Yes. Post-removal decontamination is included as part of our service -- treating all affected surfaces with approved biocidal products to eliminate remaining pathogens.
