Pigeon / Bird / Bat Guano

On average around 2,000 people a year in Britain are infected from wild pigeons, which carry 50+ diseases including salmonellosis and E-coli. In five years the number of pigeons in Britian is estimated to have doubled.

Cryptococcosis and histoplasmosis infections occur by inhaling the pathogenic spores through the nose and mouth. These diseases can lead to inflammation of the brain, pneumonia, blindness and even death. Bird droppings are most dangerous when they are dry and subject to becoming airborne as a fine dust, Safe cleanup is based on protection from spore inhalation and minimization of spore dispersal.

Not only is Pigeon Guano hazardous to health it is also has a detrimental effect on buildings causing corrosion and quickly deface finishes both to the inside and outside of buildings causing high maintainance costs.
