Histoplasmosis-Aware Guano Removal in Duson and Lafayette Parish
An attic guano cleanup removes droppings from joists, beams and insulation, and treats the structure afterward. Insulation soaked with guano is usually discarded because it holds odor and contamination.
Guano is a respiratory risk, so your Duson property gets containment, wet methods and protective gear, then disinfecting and inspection before the space is handed back to you. For Lafayette Parish owners, call Duson Biohazard Cleanup Help.
Most housing in Lafayette Parish is occupied, with a vacancy rate of about 10%, but attics, chimneys and outbuildings can still go unchecked for years. Duson gets about 65 inches of rain a year, and damp air keeps guano and soaked insulation wet, which strengthens odors and encourages mold on wood.
The work often covers:
- Disinfection of wood framing, joists and hard surfaces with EPA-registered products
- Documentation of the work for buyers, inspectors, landlords and insurers
- Cleanup after wildlife exclusion, once bats or birds have been removed by a professional
- HEPA-filtered vacuuming and air cleaning to capture fine dust after removal
- Commercial guano cleanup on warehouses, storefronts, loading docks and parking structures

Bat and Bird Droppings Questions Answered in Duson
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.
How do you clean pigeon droppings safely?
Wet the droppings lightly, scrape them into a bag, then wash and disinfect the surface. Wear gloves, eye protection and a mask. Large roost areas, rooftops and enclosed spaces are best left to a team.
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.
How do I know if I have bats in my attic?
Common signs are dark droppings that crumble, stains on walls near gaps, a strong ammonia smell and squeaking or scratching at dusk and dawn. Droppings often collect in piles below entry points. A wildlife professional can confirm it.
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 Duson Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
