Many homes in Nassau County, about 85%, were built before 1980. Older insulation and wood framing soak up droppings and hold the smell. Harbor Isle gets about 49 inches of rain a year, and damp air keeps guano and soaked insulation wet, which strengthens odors and encourages mold on wood.

Guano Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Harbor Isle, NY

What rules apply to guano cleanup in New York?

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.

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.

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.

Can you get sick from bat droppings?

Yes, mainly from breathing in dust from dry droppings. Risk is higher with old, heavy buildup in enclosed spaces. People with asthma, lung conditions or weak immune systems need extra care and should stay out of the area.

Can guano get into ductwork or vents?

Yes, if birds or bats roost near vents or intakes, droppings and dust can enter air paths. Cleanup may include treating vent openings and nearby surfaces.

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.
