What are the effects of prolonged exposure to bird droppings on plastic outdoor ottomans?
Prolonged exposure to bird droppings on plastic outdoor ottomans can cause significant damage over time. The acidic nature of bird droppings may lead to discoloration, surface etching, and even weakening of the plastic material. Stains can become permanent if not cleaned promptly, and prolonged moisture from droppings may promote mold or mildew growth. To prevent damage, regularly clean affected areas with mild soap and water, or use specialized cleaners for tough stains. Protective covers or moving ottomans to sheltered areas can also help minimize exposure. Addressing droppings quickly ensures your outdoor furniture remains durable and visually appealing.
