About 62% of homes in Lakeland were built before 1980, and older attics, vents and rooflines often have gaps where bats and birds can enter. A July high of 85 degrees in Lakeland affects how fast guano dries and how strong the ammonia smell gets in a closed attic.

The work often covers:

  • Cleanup of barns, lofts, silos, chimneys and old buildings with heavy guano buildup
  • Sealing and bagging of contaminated waste for proper disposal
  • Documentation of the work for buyers, inspectors, landlords and insurers
  • Disinfection of wood framing, joists and hard surfaces with EPA-registered products
  • Cleaning of stained ceilings, walls and floors below an affected attic

What Lakeland 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.

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.

Who pays for guano cleanup in a rental?

It depends on the lease and local law. Tenants should tell the landlord or manager right away. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say who is responsible.

How much does guano removal cost?

It depends on the size of the area, the depth of the deposit, how much insulation must come out and how hard the space is to reach. A small ledge costs less than a full attic. The team sets the price after seeing the space.

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.

Can pigeon droppings damage a roof or building?

Yes. Droppings are acidic and can stain and wear down paint, metal and roofing over time. They also clog gutters and drains and create slip hazards on walkways. Cleanup and deterrents work best together.

Worried about histoplasmosis from guano in Lakeland, MN?

Do not sweep or blow. A cleanup team can plan the safe way to remove them.
