Have got to remove some pidgeon waste for one of my commercial customers and they have asked me to spray the area with a pesticide when clear!!! Anyone know where i can get some as have goggled it and cant find anything suitable!!!

Cheers
Alan

the chemical is called ornikill and you dilute it and use through a sprayer its a biocide  you can find on the internet under this name  or try the pest shop!     jamie

I would have thought in certain parts of Brighton that is standard for a Friday night

What it it about pigeon guano this year ? i did one last month and quoting on one in Dover tomorrow. PX ornikill ain't cheap !

[Pristine Clean]

Do you need to be qualified to remove/dispose of pigeon guano?


Dave

[BDCS]

You only need a waste carriers licence and an idea of the inplications helps - pigeon guano carries allsorts of bad things, full ppe and a chemical

[Blast Off Stoke]

What about disposal ?

[BDCS]

Being a waste carrier you will get the correct code and dispose in the correct manor, in theory its biowaste but when thoroughly disinfected with the correct chemical it can go to landfill

[Alan McTernan]

Hi Carl,

I hope you charge well, as i think i do and then they rip my arm off so maybe not

[BDCS]

I charge the same dayrate for this type of cleaning as I do for a days drain work

Hi

So how and where did you dispose of the waste 

Nathan

[BDCS]

The dead birds have to go to incineration - as per any pest control job via a farm incinerator or vets and the guano to landfill. Do you disagree ?

[nathann]

Do i disagree .. not so much, just after the person, company or organisation you got you information from with regards to the disposal method ect.
