Summers in Perry North are milder, with July highs around 83 degrees, but guano in closed attics still dries and turns to fine dust over time. Many homes in Pittsburgh, about 83%, were built before 1980. Older insulation and wood framing soak up droppings and hold the smell.

  • Cleaning of stained ceilings, walls and floors below an affected attic
  • Cleanup of pigeon and bird droppings on roofs, ledges, balconies and rooftops
  • Disinfection of wood framing, joists and hard surfaces with EPA-registered products
  • Removal and disposal of insulation soaked with guano, urine and nesting debris
  • Containment and wet removal of bat guano from attics, wall voids and rafters

Step by Step: Safe Guano Removal in Perry North, Pittsburgh, PA

1. Keep everyone away

Family members, tenants, staff and pets stay out while the crew plans the work and gets into protective equipment.

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. Document and hand back

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

Guano Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Perry North, Pittsburgh, PA

Does guano cleanup stop bats or birds from coming back?

No. Cleanup removes the mess but does not block entry points. A wildlife professional can seal gaps and use deterrents. Removing droppings and odor does help, since scent can draw animals back.

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.

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 Perry North 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.

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.

How do I know if I have bats in my attic?

Common signs are dark droppings that crumble, stains on walls near gaps, a strong ammonia smell and squeaking or scratching at dusk and dawn. Droppings often collect in piles below entry points. A wildlife professional can confirm it.
