Boots,overalls and hose covered with it this week,took a bit of cleaning off to be honest,do any of you carry a small shovel to move it out of the way of your hoses before you start, or what do you do?? ???
-
If there's dog poop it doesnt get on the hose.
If to do the window you HAVE to get dog poop on the hose the window doesnt get done.
-
Buy self cleaning hoses.
-
If the dog crap is solid, I give it a nudge with my boot and so remove it from the line my hose would take to get to the glass. If it is sloppy or a complete turd minefield, I get the backpack out. If there is no standing room, I don't do it. ;D
-
Don't do the house.
-
I get this more on apartment blocks as the grass around them is open to all crappers!
I've started carrying the same bags I use when taking the dog a walk. They don't cost a lot and saves having to clean your kit and clothes.
I find this to be a plus point for frosty mornings, as it's rock hard ;D

place their bins on top of it,or outdoor plant pots etc.
-
i carry some wet wipes in my van just in case.although its very rare i get any on my hose as i keep my eyes peeled on customers gardens who have dogs! ;)

jeez!
we are window cleaners, not our responsibility to be picking up others ***p after their dogs.
Unfortunately its a daily hazard of the job , moreso with wfp.
I have more of a problem with the mess on the street than in customers gardens mainly because I know which customers have dogs and where to be vigilant, and if thats the case I use a backpack to avoid trailing hoses, and oh yeah ! looking where you are walking helps.
;D
If its on the street and I have to pull a lot of hose out I look for trees/ lamp posts/railings etc. to route the hose around and keep it away from the poop .
failing that its easy to hose your boots and hose off and keep some alcohol gel in the van for your hands.

The only thing is : you dont get necter point on Amazon, you would if you buy on ebay ;D ;D ;D

Have one in particular and excuse the pun but it's an absolute poohole! I can't understand why people want to have their windows cleaned when the rest of their property resembles the elephant enclosure at Belfast zoo! And the thing disgusts me more than having to hose everything down is the kids toys are lying around the garden in the middle of the mess.
Was listening to a talk show on the radio the other morning about dog foul and a man came on who's son lost his eyesight through falling in dog foul on the beach. That's the thing while we brush it off in a light hearted way it is a very real danger to our health and our kids through it being brought home on our clothes, boots etc.
I have to say since I've became a window cleaner I've went from someone who tolerated domestic animals to someone who would be tempted to take the 12 bore to one if they happened to stray onto my property.
