Pigeon droppings removal is the cleaning of heavy, caked droppings from structures where birds roost. It can involve scraping, washing, disinfecting and sometimes removal of nests and feathers.
Guano is a respiratory risk, so your Lamont property gets containment, wet methods and protective gear, then disinfecting and inspection before the space is handed back to you. For Ottawa County owners, call Lamont Biohazard Cleanup Help.
Most housing in Ottawa County is occupied, with a vacancy rate of about 5%, but attics, chimneys and outbuildings can still go unchecked for years. Summers in Lamont are milder, with July highs around 83 degrees, but guano in closed attics still dries and turns to fine dust over time.
A typical bird & bat guano cleanup job includes:

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 Lamont Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
