Bat and Bird Droppings Questions Answered in Garden Court

How do I get rid of the guano smell?

The odor comes from droppings and urine soaked into wood and insulation, so the fix is removing the source and treating surfaces. Air fresheners only cover it. Deep stains in wood may need extra treatment.

Will the smell go away after cleanup?

Often yes, once the guano and soaked materials are removed and the area is treated. Deep stains in wood or drywall may need extra treatment, and the crew can say what to expect.

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.

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.

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.

Who pays for guano cleanup in a rental?

It depends on the lease and local law. Tenants should tell the landlord or manager right away. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say who is responsible.

Pigeon droppings piling up in Philadelphia County?

Do not sweep or blow. A cleanup team can plan the safe way to remove them.
