- Droppings on the walkways, the signs, and the equipment — accumulating droppings below the roost.
- Nesting in the eaves, the vents, and the signs — birds nesting in the protected spaces.
- Feathers and debris around the roost — the buildup under an active roost.
- Damage to the roofing and the equipment — the corrosive effect of the droppings.

Yes. We remove the droppings and sanitize the area as part of the service, because the accumulation is a health and maintenance issue.

Pigeons and European starlings are the most common roosting and nesting birds in Sussex, gathering on the ledges, the signs, and the rooflines of commercial and older buildings.
