3. Wash and disinfect the structure

Joists, rafters, ledges and walls are washed and disinfected, and stained areas are treated.

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 Jamaica Hills / Briarwood, New York, NY

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.

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.

Does guano damage insulation?

Yes. Insulation soaks up droppings, urine and odor and rarely comes back clean, so soiled insulation is usually removed and replaced. A team can tell you how far the damage goes after seeing the attic.

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.

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.
