ISSUE TEASER:

Most window cleaning safety standards revolve around fieldwork. However, safety inside your window cleaning shop is explored in this unique issue of the American Window Cleaner magazine. AWC contributor Gary Mauer emphasizes the importance of safety inside your own shop or personal workspace and he lists fire safety, safety supplies, tools, workbenches, and clutter tips.

Is bird control a sufficient add-on business? Bird Barrier's Cameron Riddell answers some burning questions that window cleaners who are interested in the bird business may have. He enlightens readers about the training, learning curve, average investment needed to get started, and what kind of damages birds cause.

The most important piece of equipment a window cleaner has is their body. The sun and blazing heat may sometimes compromise your most important piece of equipment. Some tips to stay safe in the heat are to avoid it, drink a lot, don't work alone, and protect your skin. Speaking of heat, AWC contributor R. Bruce Gebhardt teaches how to respond to drought restrictions.
