Hello @sweetie 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about removing bird poo on concrete.

 

I suggest washing the concrete with water first to soften the bird poo. I then recommend using Chemtech 5L Concrete And Driveway Cleaner. Please note that this is a concentrate and must be diluted properly before use. Scrub the surface using Oates Long Handle Deck Scrub Brush until all the bird poo has been removed. Wash the surface off with your garden hose.

 

Please remember to wear personal protection such as gloves and goggles while washing the concrete.

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.

How do you dilute the product just with water, and this won't ruin my concrete patio? And with the fumes, it's not too strong?

Hi @sweetie,

 

The product is safe to use on concrete and coloured concrete surfaces at the correct dilution rate. The dilution is done with plain water.  

 

The product isn't overly strong fume-wise, but we always recommend you wear appropriate PPE, including a face mask, safety glasses, gloves, a long-sleeved shirt and trousers and enclosed footwear. Also, make sure to work in a well-ventilated area.

 

Please let me know if you have further questions.
