Guano Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Lauderdale West, Fort Lauderdale, FL

Do barns and old buildings need special handling?

Buildings with years of buildup can hold thick, dry, dusty guano that is easy to disturb. Crews ventilate, wet down and use respirators and containment to keep spores out of the air.

How do I know if I have bats in my attic?

Common signs are dark droppings that crumble, stains on walls near gaps, a strong ammonia smell and squeaking or scratching at dusk and dawn. Droppings often collect in piles below entry points. A wildlife professional can confirm it.

How do you clean pigeon droppings safely?

Wet the droppings lightly, scrape them into a bag, then wash and disinfect the surface. Wear gloves, eye protection and a mask. Large roost areas, rooftops and enclosed spaces are best left to a team.

Can you get sick from bat droppings?

Yes, mainly from breathing in dust from dry droppings. Risk is higher with old, heavy buildup in enclosed spaces. People with asthma, lung conditions or weak immune systems need extra care and should stay out of the area.

Why shouldn't guano be swept or blown?

Dry droppings turn to fine dust that floats in the air and can carry fungal spores. Sweeping or blowing sends that dust into the air where you breathe it. Wetting first keeps particles on the surface.

How do I get rid of the guano smell?

The odor comes from droppings and urine soaked into wood and insulation, so the fix is removing the source and treating surfaces. Air fresheners only cover it. Deep stains in wood may need extra treatment.
