Bat Guano Removal in Cherry Hill, Baltimore, MD Attics and Barns

Bat guano removal is the careful collection of bat droppings, usually from attics and wall voids, using wet methods and containment. It protects people from dust that can carry fungal spores.

Found guano in a hard or unsafe place to reach in Cherry Hill? People in City of Baltimore call Cherry Hill 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.

About 13% of housing in Baltimore is vacant, and empty buildings, barns and lofts give bats and birds quiet places to roost undisturbed. Many homes in Baltimore, about 82%, were built before 1980. Older insulation and wood framing soak up droppings and hold the smell.

A typical bird & bat guano cleanup job includes:

  • Odor removal and deodorizing of ammonia-like smells left by droppings
  • Removal of nests, feathers and carcasses left by birds or bats
  • 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
  • Removal and disposal of insulation soaked with guano, urine and nesting debris

The Bat and Bird Droppings Removal Process in Cherry Hill

1. Find every deposit

Crews check roost sites, rafters, ledges and insulation, since droppings build up where animals return again and again.

2. Collect the droppings

Guano is collected without sweeping or blowing, and bagged on site so it never crosses clean rooms.

3. Remove what cannot be cleaned

Soiled insulation, stained cardboard and nesting debris go into sealed bags, and hard surfaces are scrubbed.

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 Cherry Hill, Baltimore, MD

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.

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.

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 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.

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 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.
