Guest speckled Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 :-/ ah whats up with the scraper why ya need a to use all that sray in loft if ya birds are healthy get the blow torch nothing beats that :X Speck
pjc Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 no problem spraying the loft with the birds in it or in the aviary. If your worried about it then just basket the birds and spray or burn! Phil

Guest peter.j Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 imagine your welding your shed together without the oxy acetylene and just using propane gas get in all the nooks and crannies just lightly scorch everything......pete
german owls rock Posted July 26, 2008 Author Report Posted July 26, 2008 thanks pete do i need to leave the shed emptey for a few day is their any toxins that would harm the pigeons by doing this ??
The Navigator Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 Virkon S for me also. Good stuff?
rembrant2coo Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 Virkon S for me also. Good stuff? virkon-s for me also or chloracarb for the birds in a dip , and use the rest on the floors and walls of loft
cemetary Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 Watch when you are burning that you dont burn the hut down, be very carefull. Virkon for me.
ALF Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 I've been using a burner for a few years now in the loft best tenner i ever spent
THE FIFER Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 you get those burners fron the garden centres for burning weeds, very light and handy, but as stated be very careful when using as dry wood catches very easy,
ALF Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 Mine is'nt the light 1 Archie it's a big industrial 1 for roof felting with a 2ft flame when it's turned up full blast (not that you ever need to use it on full in the loft) ;)
DOVEScot Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 you get those burners fron the garden centres for burning weeds, very light and handy, but as stated be very careful when using as dry eood catches very easy, "Eood" that is Fife slang for wood ;D ;D ;D If you are not sure about scorching try it on a spare bit of wood before you try the loft, if spraying do not have it too fine that it will carry in the air too much or too heavy that it will take hours to dry out, we use virkon and jeyes fliud in the summer :-/

Yes !!!!!!! & they are all cheap ;) etc & nasty to most of the bugs you may find in the loft :P . 1 White vinegar 2 Bleach 3 Kerosene, ;D ;D but be careful ????? or you may need a new loft etc. Enjoy.
ChrisMaidment08 Posted September 5, 2008 Report Posted September 5, 2008 len do you use kerosene in loft it must make mess on birds
Roland Posted September 6, 2008 Report Posted September 6, 2008 VIRKON S OR AN INDUSTRIAL BURNER DOES THE TRICK NICELY That after Demestos soaking( three times), and then painted me. Had a bad scare once, last three years been real bad. Set me back big time. Just getting me stool set out again. So best think twice, act thrice, for once and for all.
Lennut Tar Posted September 6, 2008 Report Posted September 6, 2008 len do you use kerosene in loft it must make mess on birds No never !!!!!!!! I use it in the summer period etc when the weather is rather hot here, so the lofts drys out quite quickly, before I let the birds back in. Thou !!!!!!!! :P the lofts certainly have a smell to them, I can tell you in all honesty. But then ???????? the birds have never told me etc what they think. Enjoy.
