Bird shite can be scraped off and then washed down with hot, soapy water,
Chewing Gum is best scraped off and then left to the elements. There are gum removers that you can buy, but they are intended for town centres, shopping malls etc, and they ain't cheap; for one or two spots, it's not economic.
If you can freeze the gum, it comes up quite easily. I saw it done with dry ice(?) or something like that some years ago - the gum was sprayed from an aerosol with a liquid that rapidly turned to vapour, and then it literally flaked off the paving.
Oil - there's loads of so-called remedies. The ones that have been proven to work are listed on the Removing Stains page.
