Pigeon guano poses serious risks to both human health and buildings. When birds sit and roost on properties, they leave behind droppings that can spread disease, cause damage to stonework, and create unsightly messes. At The Sparkle Gang, we provide expert pigeon guano removal services to safely remove bird droppings, protecting your property and the humans who use it.
