Guano cleanup is the safe removal of bird and bat droppings from attics, barns, chimneys, roofs and ledges, along with soiled insulation, then disinfection of the affected area. Dust control is built into every step.

With roughly 45 inches of annual rainfall in Ashburn, roof leaks and humid attics are common, and moisture makes droppings heavier and harder to remove.

Sorting, cleaning and sanitizing of stored items and belongings that can be saved
Cleanup of barns, lofts, silos, chimneys and old buildings with heavy guano buildup
Containment and wet removal of bat guano from attics, wall voids and rafters
Odor removal and deodorizing of ammonia-like smells left by droppings
HEPA-filtered vacuuming and air cleaning to capture fine dust after removal

Step by Step: Safe Guano Removal in Ashburn, VA

1. Assess and isolate

The crew checks how far droppings spread, keeps people out and seals the work area so dust stays contained.

2. Collect the droppings

Guano is collected without sweeping or blowing, and bagged on site so it never crosses clean rooms.

3. Wash and disinfect the structure

Joists, rafters, ledges and walls are washed and disinfected, and stained areas are treated.

4. Clean the air and surfaces

HEPA filtration clears the air, surfaces are disinfected, and the owner is walked through the result.

Guano Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Ashburn, VA

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.

Does guano cleanup stop bats or birds from coming back?

No. Cleanup removes the mess but does not block entry points. A wildlife professional can seal gaps and use deterrents. Removing droppings and odor does help, since scent can draw animals back.

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

Is bird poop a biohazard?

Large amounts of bird droppings are treated as a contamination hazard because they can hold germs and fungal spores. A small spot outdoors is a simple wash. Thick buildup in a closed space needs protective gear and wet methods.

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.

What if droppings are on a roof or high ledge?

Roof and high ledge work needs fall protection and care around other people. Crews can remove and wash droppings there, and a property manager or owner can set up access.
