Summers in Birchwood Lakes are milder, with July highs around 82 degrees, but guano in closed attics still dries and turns to fine dust over time. Older and newer buildings in Birchwood Lakes both attract roosting animals, and attic guano is handled the same way: wet down, remove, bag and disinfect.
The work often covers:
- Cleanup of pigeon and bird droppings on roofs, ledges, balconies and rooftops
- Documentation of the work for buyers, inspectors, landlords and insurers
- HEPA-filtered vacuuming and air cleaning to capture fine dust after removal
- Disinfection of wood framing, joists and hard surfaces with EPA-registered products
- Cleanup of barns, lofts, silos, chimneys and old buildings with heavy guano buildup

Bat and Bird Droppings Questions Answered in Birchwood Lakes
Will insurance pay for guano cleanup?
Sometimes, but not always. Many homeowners policies exclude damage from animals that builds up over time, and wording differs. Call your insurer before work starts, take photos and keep receipts.
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.
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.
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 Birchwood Lakes Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
Should I remove the bats first or clean the guano first?
The animals come out first. Wildlife professionals handle exclusion, and rules about bats can vary by species, season and place. Cleanup follows once the space is no longer in use by animals.
How much does guano removal cost?
It depends on the size of the area, the depth of the deposit, how much insulation must come out and how hard the space is to reach. A small ledge costs less than a full attic. The team sets the price after seeing the space.
