Pigeon and Bird Droppings Cleanup in Oakley, UT

Bird droppings cleanup covers pigeon, starling and sparrow droppings on roofs, ledges, balconies, rafters and rooftops. Dry droppings can turn to fine dust, so they are wetted before they are scraped and bagged.

If you are a homeowner, landlord or property manager in Oakley, UT, you can get bat and bird guano removal. Crews work at any hour in attics, lofts, rooftops, chimneys, balconies and warehouses across Summit County. To start, call Oakley Biohazard Cleanup Help.

Only about 21% of homes in Summit County were built before 1980, but newer roofs, vents and soffits can still give bats and birds a way in. Oakley is on the drier side, with about 17 inches of rain a year, so old guano dries out fast and turns to fine dust that must be wetted before removal.

Bird & Bat Guano Cleanup in Oakley usually includes:

Removal and disposal of insulation soaked with guano, urine and nesting debris
Disinfection of wood framing, joists and hard surfaces with EPA-registered products
Odor removal and deodorizing of ammonia-like smells left by droppings
Sealing and bagging of contaminated waste for proper disposal
Sorting, cleaning and sanitizing of stored items and belongings that can be saved

Step by Step: Safe Guano Removal in Oakley, UT

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

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

Joists, rafters, ledges and walls are washed and disinfected, and stained areas are treated.

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.

What Oakley Property Owners Ask About Guano and Histoplasmosis

What is histoplasmosis?

Histoplasmosis is a lung infection linked to a fungus that can grow in soil and droppings from birds and bats. People are exposed by breathing in spores. Many exposed people have no symptoms, and anyone who feels unwell after being around guano should tell a doctor.

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.

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

Do barns and old buildings need special handling?

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.

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.

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.
