Bird and Bat Guano Cleanup for Orland, CA Homes and Businesses

Histoplasmosis is a lung infection linked to a fungus that can grow in soil enriched by droppings from birds and bats. Guano cleanup is designed to keep those spores from being breathed in.

Guano is a respiratory risk, so your Orland property gets containment, wet methods and protective gear, then disinfecting and inspection before the space is handed back to you. For Glenn County owners, call Orland Biohazard Cleanup Help.

Only about 46% of homes in Orland were built before 1980, but newer roofs, vents and soffits can still give bats and birds a way in. About 11% of housing in Glenn County is vacant, and empty buildings, barns and lofts give bats and birds quiet places to roost undisturbed.

Bird & Bat Guano Cleanup in Orland usually includes:

  • 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
  • Removal of nests, feathers and carcasses left by birds or bats
  • Cleanup of barns, lofts, silos, chimneys and old buildings with heavy guano buildup
  • Removal and disposal of insulation soaked with guano, urine and nesting debris

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

2. Hold the dust down

3. Wet, scrape and clear

Droppings are wetted, scraped and collected, and insulation that cannot be cleaned is cut out and bagged.

The owner receives a summary of the work for buyers, inspectors or insurers, and the area is cleared for use.

What Orland Property Owners Ask About Guano and Histoplasmosis

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
