A/C Units Loaded with Pigeon Poop

Challenge

This warehouse in Hillsborough, NJ, had a serious problem with pigeons roosting and defecating all over the A/C units. Previously, we safely removed and excluded the pigeons from the roof. Now, we're here to remove all the pigeon poop inside the A/C units as well as underneath them!

Solution

We carefully removed all the droppings and disposed of them. In total, there were over 30lbs of pigeon poop! Next, we disinfected and clean out all the A/C units with a solution that targets bird mites. Bird mites are parasites that feed on the blood of birds. When birds leave their nests, the mites are left behind without a suitable host for their next blood meal. They will make their way into a home or business, and once inside they will take over, climbing all over your walls, ceilings, and beddings.

To make matters worse, bird mites are tiny and semi-transparent, so they are extremely difficult to detect. Bird mites are the main reason why extreme care is needed when removing a nest. Now the A/C units are cleaned and good as new!
