- Cleanup after wildlife exclusion, once bats or birds have been removed by a professional
- HEPA-filtered vacuuming and air cleaning to capture fine dust after removal

What Lincoln Property Owners Ask About Guano and Histoplasmosis
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.
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.
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.
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.
Who removes bat guano from an attic?
A guano removal service or cleanup team usually does this work. It involves containment, protective gear, careful removal and disinfecting. Wildlife professionals handle the animals themselves.
Is bird poop a biohazard?
Large amounts of bird droppings are treated as a contamination hazard because they can hold germs and fungal spores. A small spot outdoors is a simple wash. Thick buildup in a closed space needs protective gear and wet methods.
