Found guano in a hard or unsafe place to reach in Haverford North? People in Philadelphia County call Haverford North Biohazard Cleanup Help and get a cleanup team that works discreetly, explains each step and sorts what you can keep from what must be discarded.

With roughly 51 inches of annual rainfall in Haverford North, roof leaks and humid attics are common, and moisture makes droppings heavier and harder to remove.

What bird & bat guano cleanup covers:

  • Cleanup of barns, lofts, silos, chimneys and old buildings with heavy guano buildup
  • Cleanup after wildlife exclusion, once bats or birds have been removed by a professional
  • Documentation of the work for buyers, inspectors, landlords and insurers
  • Cleaning of stained ceilings, walls and floors below an affected attic
  • Removal and disposal of insulation soaked with guano, urine and nesting debris

A cleanup technician maps the droppings, stains and damaged insulation in attics, lofts or on rooftops.

2. Wet down thick deposits

Heavy or caked droppings are softened with a light mist so they can be lifted without raising dust.

3. Wet, scrape and clear

Droppings are wetted, scraped and collected, and insulation that cannot be cleaned is cut out and bagged.

4. Disinfect and inspect

Wood, drywall and hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected, odor is treated, and the crew checks the finished space.

Guano Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Haverford North, Philadelphia, PA

What should I do first if I find guano?

Do not sweep, blow or vacuum it. Keep people and pets away and leave it undisturbed until you know the size of the job. Call Haverford North Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.

Can I clean a small amount of guano myself?

Sometimes. For a small spot, wear gloves, eye protection and a mask, wet the droppings lightly and wipe them up. Do not sweep or blow them dry. Thick, old or large deposits and attics are better left to a team.

What is histoplasmosis?

Histoplasmosis is a lung infection linked to a fungus that can grow in soil and droppings from birds and bats. People are exposed by breathing in spores. Many exposed people have no symptoms, and anyone who feels unwell after being around guano should tell a doctor.

Is it safe to stay home during guano cleanup?

For work in a sealed attic, many people stay in the home while crews work with containment. For heavy contamination or open spaces, it may be better to stay away. The team will say what is best for your situation.

Will the smell go away after cleanup?

Often yes, once the guano and soaked materials are removed and the area is treated. Deep stains in wood or drywall may need extra treatment, and the crew can say what to expect.

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.
