Lake Heritage gets about 44 inches of rain a year, and damp air keeps guano and soaked insulation wet, which strengthens odors and encourages mold on wood. Most housing in Adams County is occupied, with a vacancy rate of about 6%, but attics, chimneys and outbuildings can still go unchecked for years.

A typical bird & bat guano cleanup job includes:

  • 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
  • Documentation of the work for buyers, inspectors, landlords and insurers
  • Cleanup of pigeon and bird droppings on roofs, ledges, balconies and rooftops
  • Odor removal and deodorizing of ammonia-like smells left by droppings

Guano Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Lake Heritage, PA

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.

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.

What if droppings are on a roof or high ledge?

Roof and high ledge work needs fall protection and care around other people. Crews can remove and wash droppings there, and a property manager or owner can set up access.

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.

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.
