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

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

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

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

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 ?

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.
