Bird Guano like concrete!
« on: November 10, 2020, 04:47:05 pm »
Hi can anyone recommend a chemical that can melt concreted bird crap?

The pigeons and seagulls like to hang out on my customers chimney/TV Ariel directly above her solar panels.

There is ten years worth of bird crap and a 30 minute scrub at full pressure did absolutely nothing.

Can anyone recommend a chemical that will do the hard work for me?

Thanks,
Dan.

Don’t bother with a £10 chemical, that would be too easy, instead go out and spend 5k on a hot diesel system😁

Are you trying to clean it off solar panels or windows?

Even if you do a perfect job the crap will be back the next day if the panels/window is under an ariel. Either they move the ariel or it is just something they will have to put up with anyway.

I would think most ariels are redundant now with Cable and Sky.

🤣 Hot water hold  a jet over anything like that that’s baked on it’s coming off with 65-70 degrees,you could do what most do though and stick with cold and ruin the brush before you even begin to shift muck like that 👍.

hot water and virosol is what i would use and a gardiner plastic scraper if the glass is that bad
price higher/work harder!

One of the worst things this time of year I’m sure last few weeks most have come across it and that’s the outer line that a leaf leaves on a window sill especially PVC sills,hot water and it’s gone in seconds.
