- Disinfection of wood framing, joists and hard surfaces with EPA-registered products
- Cleanup of barns, lofts, silos, chimneys and old buildings with heavy guano buildup
- Cleaning of stained ceilings, walls and floors below an affected attic

What Saltillo Property Owners Ask About Guano and Histoplasmosis
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 Saltillo Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
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.
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.
How do I get rid of the guano smell?
The odor comes from droppings and urine soaked into wood and insulation, so the fix is removing the source and treating surfaces. Air fresheners only cover it. Deep stains in wood may need extra treatment.
What rules apply to guano cleanup in Mississippi?
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.
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.
