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 Seville property gets containment, wet methods and protective gear, then disinfecting and inspection before the space is handed back to you. For Medina County owners, call Seville Biohazard Cleanup Help.
Seville gets about 40 inches of rain a year, and damp air keeps guano and soaked insulation wet, which strengthens odors and encourages mold on wood. Only about 53% of homes in Seville were built before 1980, but newer roofs, vents and soffits can still give bats and birds a way in.
A typical bird & bat guano cleanup job includes:
Crews check roost sites, rafters, ledges and insulation, since droppings build up where animals return again and again.

Droppings are wetted, scraped and collected, and insulation that cannot be cleaned is cut out and bagged.
Wood, drywall and hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected, odor is treated, and the crew checks the finished space.

Yes, if birds or bats roost near vents or intakes, droppings and dust can enter air paths. Cleanup may include treating vent openings and nearby surfaces.
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.
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.
Wet the droppings lightly, scrape them into a bag, then wash and disinfect the surface. Wear gloves, eye protection and a mask. Large roost areas, rooftops and enclosed spaces are best left to a team.
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.
Call (877) 812-4220 any hour and describe where the droppings are.
