Bird & Bat Guano Cleanup in Speer, Denver, CO

Cleaning Up After Bats and Birds in Speer, Denver, CO

Guano contamination cleanup treats droppings as hazardous dust. Crews wear respirators and protective suits, control airflow and clean in stages rather than sweeping or blowing material around.

Guano is a respiratory risk, so your Speer property gets containment, wet methods and protective gear, then disinfecting and inspection before the space is handed back to you. For Denver County owners, call Speer Biohazard Cleanup Help.

Many homes in Denver, about 56%, were built before 1980. Older insulation and wood framing soak up droppings and hold the smell. With July highs near 90 degrees in Speer, crews limit time in hot attics and take extra care to hold dust down while they work.

The work often covers:

  • Cleanup of pigeon and bird droppings on roofs, ledges, balconies and rooftops
  • Odor removal and deodorizing of ammonia-like smells left by droppings
  • Sorting, cleaning and sanitizing of stored items and belongings that can be saved
  • Cleanup after wildlife exclusion, once bats or birds have been removed by a professional
  • Commercial guano cleanup on warehouses, storefronts, loading docks and parking structures

Step by Step: Safe Guano Removal in Speer, Denver, CO

1. Keep everyone away

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

2. Suppress the dust

Technicians put on respirators and suits, then lightly wet the guano to keep fine particles from rising.

3. Remove and disinfect

Guano and soiled materials are taken out, and framing, floors and hard surfaces are cleaned and treated.

Odor and air are checked, and the owner is shown what was done and what remains for other trades.

Bat and Bird Droppings Questions Answered in Speer

Will insurance pay for guano cleanup?

Sometimes, but not always. Many homeowners policies exclude damage from animals that builds up over time, and wording differs. Call your insurer before work starts, take photos and keep receipts.

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.

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

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 guano dangerous?

It can be. Dry guano releases fine dust, and some bird and bat droppings can carry a fungus linked to histoplasmosis, a lung infection. Many people never get sick, but older, heavy deposits carry more risk. Avoid stirring it up.

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.
