Bat Guano Cleanup Sanitation At Barnes Wildlife Control

Our Bat Guano Cleanup Sanitation Process

Once bats have been excluded from your home, and in most cases your attic, the hard work begins, the bat guano cleanup sanitation process. Once you’ve established the presence of bats, you must safely clean the areas and remove the feces. In all likelihood, you will want Barnes Wildlife Control Bat Guano Cleanup Sanitation services since a colony of bats can leave piles of guano that host many infectious viruses, bacteria, and fungi.
Not only does bat guano and urine can leave a noxious odor, but the moisture from the combination can also work its way into and through insulation and onto ceilings and walls in your living quarters.

The buildup of bat guano feces can become a contamination and respiratory concern when bats have been present within a structure at a relatively high density for a lengthy period. A fungus called Histoplasma capsulatum, which grows in bat guano, can present health problems to humans once the guano dries. The fungus contains spores that move through the air and into the breathable atmosphere of your living quarters.

Suffice it to say you need our Bat Guano Cleanup Sanitation service for your home as soon as possible. You must have us remove contaminated materials like soaked wood, drywall, and insulation and then sanitize all contaminated surfaces.

It is not uncommon to find an attic’s insulation so heavily contaminated by bat guano and urine that all of it needs removal, hence new insulation throughout the attic.

How We Take Out Contaminated Materials

When we begin the Bat Guano Cleanup Sanitation Process, we seal off the contaminated area from the rest of the building. Our team enters the contaminated room with fully-suited HAZMAT and removes the bulk of guano by shovel placed in sealed bags.

Also, all contaminated batt insulation gets packed into sealed disinfected plastic bags. If you have contaminated blown-in insulation, our HEPA vacuum system removes all loose insulation, including any remaining guano.

Next, our Bat Guano Cleanup Sanitation experts clean all surfaces thoroughly with an enzyme-based cleaner that removes guano and urine stains. Our technicians apply an odorless, non-toxic hospital-grade disinfectant/sanitizer, mildewstat, fungicide, and deodorizer that kills bacteria and viruses. The solution is applied and saturated into all surfaces by hand or sprayer, followed by an ultra-low volume fogger that further cleans and deodorizes the area.
