Bird droppings cleanup covers pigeon, starling and sparrow droppings on roofs, ledges, balconies, rafters and rooftops. Dry droppings can turn to fine dust, so they are wetted before they are scraped and bagged.

Shoreacres gets about 60 inches of rain a year, and damp air keeps guano and soaked insulation wet, which strengthens odors and encourages mold on wood. Many homes in Shoreacres, about 48%, were built before 1980. Older insulation and wood framing soak up droppings and hold the smell.

  • Commercial guano cleanup on warehouses, storefronts, loading docks and parking structures
  • Cleanup of barns, lofts, silos, chimneys and old buildings with heavy guano buildup

Bat and Bird Droppings Questions Answered in Shoreacres

Do I need to replace attic insulation after guano?

Usually, if droppings or urine have soaked into it. Soiled insulation holds contamination and odor and cannot be reliably cleaned. After removal, new insulation is installed as a separate job.

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.

Is guano dangerous?

It can be. Dry guano releases fine dust, and some bird and bat droppings can carry a fungus linked to histoplasmosis, a lung infection. Many people never get sick, but older, heavy deposits carry more risk. Avoid stirring it up.

Does guano cleanup stop bats or birds from coming back?

No. Cleanup removes the mess but does not block entry points. A wildlife professional can seal gaps and use deterrents. Removing droppings and odor does help, since scent can draw animals back.

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.

Can pigeon droppings damage a roof or building?

Yes. Droppings are acidic and can stain and wear down paint, metal and roofing over time. They also clog gutters and drains and create slip hazards on walkways. Cleanup and deterrents work best together.
