Today

Any suggestions on getting that black junk off of the roof? Not sure this stuff is gonna work, will be able to tell more tomorrow after it dries.These Eurasian Collared -Doves show up in the same place at the same time everyday. Pretty neat.

I hope it cleans off your roof. That is frustrating, I know sometimes mildew comes here and that black stuff too. The doves are neat. I always enjoy watching them.

If it's mildew--you can get something to spray on it. They say that Clorox works--but it may hurt any flowers you have under there--if it drips. Be careful of that. If it's just dirt, you should be able to get it off fairly easily. We are lucky. Our shingle roof is DARK--and I'll never get a light colored one no matter how pretty they are...

Beautiful doves!!!! BUT--I'll admit that when I first looked at the pictures, I read the dove info first and missed the info about the roof. SO--since I didn't read the first part, I looked at the picture of him cleaning the roof--and I immediately thought that he was cleaning the dove crap off of the roof.... NOw--how funny is that!!!! The lesson learned--read from the beginning !!! ha ha
Hugs,
Betsy

I don't know where you live. I have noticed homes in the south tend to get mildew. We don't have that problem here. I hope you got it off. I love the mourning doves. They won't be visiting us until spring.

Looks like the sun is shining. I can't offer any advice on the roof. The doves are sweet.

Love the pictures of the woodpecker and the doves.
Tough job trying to clean up the black stuff!

Yes I would say Clorox also!

Rosemarie said...

Hey! I've got lots of catching up to do!

The doves are beautiful. I wonder why they come the same time everyday? What are they looking for?

Hope your roof comes clean!!!

Hi Darla good luck with getting that gunk off the roof. I love watching the doves in the garden too.

I just found you today! Glad I did..I am a garden girl as well. I have 2 sets of cardinals that come to my feeder at the same time each eve. We call them "the couples" as there are 2 males and 2 females. It is really fascinating to watch their evening ritual at the feeder. I'll be back! and I hope that product will work on your roof.

I like your Dove! I hope to see one of these again!

Betsy's right - Clorox or any bleach will work. We lived under pine trees before and that's what we used. She's also right about the flowers and plants. We covered ours with plastic while we did it and then rinsed them and the ground well.
Good Luck.

What is that black stuff anyway? The doves are nice. I'd never seen any in person until I started visiting the botanical gardens.

Susie said...

The doves do the same thing here. There are always several of them together. I think they are so sweet!

Different type of dove than we have here. You are just moving right along.
