Guano, soiled insulation and nesting debris are removed by hand or with HEPA-filtered tools and sealed in heavy bags.

Common Questions About Guano Removal in Lafayette Park, Detroit, MI

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

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.

Do I need to replace attic insulation after guano?

Usually, if droppings or urine have soaked into it. Soiled insulation holds contamination and odor and cannot be reliably cleaned. After removal, new insulation is installed as a separate job.

What rules apply to guano cleanup in Michigan?

Worker safety follows OSHA rules for hazardous dust, and waste disposal is handled according to local requirements. Rules about moving or excluding bats and other wildlife can vary by species and season, so check with a wildlife professional first.

Who removes bat guano from an attic?

A guano removal service or cleanup team usually does this work. It involves containment, protective gear, careful removal and disinfecting. Wildlife professionals handle the animals themselves.

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.
