About 68% of homes in Port Angeles were built before 1980, and older attics, vents and rooflines often have gaps where bats and birds can enter. Summers in Port Angeles are milder, with July highs around 67 degrees, but guano in closed attics still dries and turns to fine dust over time.

A typical bird & bat guano cleanup job includes:

Cleanup of pigeon and bird droppings on roofs, ledges, balconies and rooftops
Odor removal and deodorizing of ammonia-like smells left by droppings
Removal and disposal of insulation soaked with guano, urine and nesting debris
Containment and wet removal of bat guano from attics, wall voids and rafters
Commercial guano cleanup on warehouses, storefronts, loading docks and parking structures

How Guano Cleanup Works in Port Angeles, WA

1. Safety first

The crew checks for weak flooring, tight access and other hazards, then sets up lighting, protective gear and containment.

2. Collect the droppings

Guano is collected without sweeping or blowing, and bagged on site so it never crosses clean rooms.

3. Wet, scrape and clear

Droppings are wetted, scraped and collected, and insulation that cannot be cleaned is cut out and bagged.

4. Sanitize and deodorize

Remaining surfaces are disinfected, and the ammonia-like odor is treated at its source.

Bat and Bird Droppings Questions Answered in Port Angeles

Will the smell go away after cleanup?

Often yes, once the guano and soaked materials are removed and the area is treated. Deep stains in wood or drywall may need extra treatment, and the crew can say what to expect.

How do I get rid of the guano smell?

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.

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.

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 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.

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.
