Many homes in South Temple, about 93%, were built before 1980. Older insulation and wood framing soak up droppings and hold the smell. Most housing in Berks County is occupied, with a vacancy rate of about 5%, 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
Containment and wet removal of bat guano from attics, wall voids and rafters
Sealing and bagging of contaminated waste for proper disposal
HEPA-filtered vacuuming and air cleaning to capture fine dust after removal
Removal of nests, feathers and carcasses left by birds or bats

The Bat and Bird Droppings Removal Process in South Temple

1. Walk through the space

A cleanup technician maps the droppings, stains and damaged insulation in attics, lofts or on rooftops.

2. Hold the dust down

Moisture and containment keep spores and particles from becoming airborne during removal.

3. Wet, scrape and clear

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

4. Disinfect and inspect

Wood, drywall and hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected, odor is treated, and the crew checks the finished space.

Guano Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in South Temple, PA

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.

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.

Is guano dangerous?

It can be. Dry guano releases fine dust, and some bird and bat droppings can carry a fungus linked to histoplasmosis, a lung infection. Many people never get sick, but older, heavy deposits carry more risk. Avoid stirring it up.

What should I do first if I find guano?

Do not sweep, blow or vacuum it. Keep people and pets away and leave it undisturbed until you know the size of the job. Call South Temple Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.

What rules apply to guano cleanup in Pennsylvania?

Worker safety follows OSHA rules for hazardous dust, and waste disposal is handled according to local requirements. Rules about moving or excluding bats and other wildlife can vary by species and season, so check with a wildlife professional first.

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.
