cleaning bird crap from my roof

Return to I Have An Existing Metal Roof and Have A Question

Return to Forum

Our Community Center roof was installed 2 months ago and just now, birds are beginning to perch on the edges and crap on the metal roof leaving noticeable droppings. Please advise us on the following: 1. Best way to clean the metal roof of bird droppings? 2. Ways to prevent birds from perching on the roof edges? Any help is greatly appreciated. Regards, Dave Borg Community Owner

Hi Dave, The area could be carefully and lightly power washed. If you google "how to get rid of pigeons" you will find many ideas and products for helping with this situation. I am sorry I have not had personal experience with any of them. Todd Miller
