Getting chicken poo stains off wood table

[Ccort]

I wasn't sure where to post this but I figured the DIY folks are most likely to have a solid idea.
I have chicken poop stains on a wooden table that will not come off. They're the almost crusty looking white-ish/grey stains. I've tried apple cider vinegar, dish soap and some regular household cleaners. No impact.

Ideas, anyone?

The only luck I’ve ever had with poop is with Dawn dish soap. Other brands don’t work. It works on ducks that get caught in industrial oil spills and it works on baby poop. Maybe it will work on your table. If you’ve already tried that I’m afraid I don’t know any other tricks.

Have you tried any type of scouring pad?

Have you tried getting it wet and letting it soak for a few hours? (Maybe put a wet cloth on it to keep it wet, rather than trying to put the whole table in water.)

Then scrub with a cloth. Or, if you aren't worried about damaging the finish on the table, scrub with some kind of scratchy scouring pad.

If you have already tried that, the only other thing I can think of is to use sandpaper to sand it off. That would take off any finish in the area, and then start taking off wood as well. So if the table has a finish you want to preserve, this would not be a good thing to try.

I've let it soak and tried a scouring pad. I haven't tried a Magic Eraser but thats on my list. Doubt it'll work. I hate to use sandpaper as I do want to keep the finish!

I do want to keep the finish!

How did chick poop get on there, anyway?
It might not be stains, but bleaching from the urea? Try some sort of white ring treatment.

Update, in case anyone finds this and also needs a solution...

Enzymatic cleaner...like those for pet stains. Took the marks off! I let it set for a few minutes and scrubbed away.

Great! And thank you so much for updating
