Common Questions About Guano Removal in Hillside, Colorado Springs, CO

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.

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.

Does guano damage insulation?

Yes. Insulation soaks up droppings, urine and odor and rarely comes back clean, so soiled insulation is usually removed and replaced. A team can tell you how far the damage goes after seeing the attic.

Can pigeon droppings damage a roof or building?

Yes. Droppings are acidic and can stain and wear down paint, metal and roofing over time. They also clog gutters and drains and create slip hazards on walkways. Cleanup and deterrents work best together.

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.

Is it safe to stay home during guano cleanup?

For work in a sealed attic, many people stay in the home while crews work with containment. For heavy contamination or open spaces, it may be better to stay away. The team will say what is best for your situation.
