Bat guano removal is the careful collection of bat droppings, usually from attics and wall voids, using wet methods and containment. It protects people from dust that can carry fungal spores.

Lake Mary gets about 54 inches of rain a year, and damp air keeps guano and soaked insulation wet, which strengthens odors and encourages mold on wood. Most housing in Seminole County is occupied, with a vacancy rate of about 6%, but attics, chimneys and outbuildings can still go unchecked for years.
The work often covers:
- Sealing and bagging of contaminated waste for proper disposal
- Cleanup of barns, lofts, silos, chimneys and old buildings with heavy guano buildup
- HEPA-filtered vacuuming and air cleaning to capture fine dust after removal
- Cleanup of pigeon and bird droppings on roofs, ledges, balconies and rooftops

Bat and Bird Droppings Questions Answered in Lake Mary
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.
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 rules apply to guano cleanup in Florida?
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.
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 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 Lake Mary Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
