WHY is an enzymatic cleaner
needed?
Bird droppings
are a guarantee anytime birds choose a site to roost, feed or nest. This
happens in nearly all human inhabited sites. Excrement does produce odor
and unsightly stains, but there are hidden dangers and costs which go
far beyond the ugliness!
Dried fecal material has been proven to become an aerosol and will
trigger asthma and allergic reactions. Health risks are heighten, for
those with respiratory ailments and those not diagnosed. Many believe
the cause of “sick building” disease is bird dropping aerosols
introduced and distributed by the HVAC air exchange system.
Birds are proven vectors for many infectious diseases, which infect and
can kill household pets and humans. Likewise, over 100 parasites and
mosquitoes rely on birds for vectoring and reproduction.
Being organic, bird droppings will become slick when made wet from rain
or irrigation. This will make walking surface hazardous. Personal safety
concerns are paramount. Many species produce droppings that are
corrosive, damaging equipment and structures, producing repair costs in
addition to the clean up and painting expense. Wooden structures will
absorb the manure’s nitrogen, producing a greater fire risk. In
industry, production stoppage and increased costs is a threat,
particularly when roosting birds focus on a site and droppings pollute
raw materials or finished products.
WHAT are bd- and bd-plus?
bd- is a
proprietary blend of enzymes formulated to depreciate bird droppings
without any environmental impact, limits on site and without producing
toxic/hazard slurries.
bd- is a low-foaming, multi-enzyme product. It is pH neutral and poses
no threat to surfaces or landscapes. It targets the proteins, fats and
carbohydrates that make up fecal material. The enzymatic action breaks
up the complex molecules in the excrement so that natural bacteria can
digest it and reduce the accumulations into CO2 and H20.
When a site has old, caked-on, stubborn accumulations, often a stronger
solution is needed. Flock Fighters USA also carries bd-plus
which has added surfactants to penetrate stubborn deposits. bd-plus has
a pH of 11.4. This physical attribute neutralizes the organic acids
found in many manures.
