Dog poo in gardens
« on: October 09, 2025, 09:13:05 am »
I'm sure this topic has been brought up before but  thought I would share this excuse from a new customer regarding dog poo.
When I got to this guys back garden I couldn't believe the amount of poo that was in there so I knocked on the door to ask him to remove it otherwise I wouldn't be cleaning his back windows where he remarked " Oh I'm sorry but don't go in the garden in the winter months!!!". It must have taken him a good 20 minutes to put it all into a bin bag dirty creature!!

You waited 20 minutes for him to clean up?

I wouldn't even go in after it's cleaned up as some will still be on the grass. Don't know why people get a dog if there nit prepared to walk it.

Bear poo is the issue here. Don’t know how toxic it is though. Probably not as toxic as dog poo. It’s usually full of cherry pips. We have it all the time in the back garden.

Ive dumped plenty of jobs over the years because of this very problem and even tell them why. They are usually late payers too so I always tell them this too followed by

'You don't fit my customer profile'!(nicked this saying off greenpro cleaning off the other forum)😆

Many years ago when my son worked for me we went to do a new clean (job came from a canvasser) my son took the hose to back of the house then immediately came back  to van saying it was covered in dog poop,

I went and took a look for myself and sure enough it was a total mess, I knocked on the lady's  and told her we were not prepared to drag our hose through all the sh*t .

Needless to say we did not go back there and the canvasser did not get paid for that lead.
