Bat and Bird Droppings Questions Answered in Medulla

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.

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.

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.

Do barns and old buildings need special handling?

Buildings with years of buildup can hold thick, dry, dusty guano that is easy to disturb. Crews ventilate, wet down and use respirators and containment to keep spores out of the air.

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.
