The Bat and Bird Droppings Removal Process in Calexico

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. Wet, scrape and clear

Droppings are wetted, scraped and collected, and insulation that cannot be cleaned is cut out and bagged.

4. Sanitize and deodorize

Remaining surfaces are disinfected, and the ammonia-like odor is treated at its source.

Common Questions About Guano Removal in Calexico, CA

Can I clean a small amount of guano myself?

Sometimes. For a small spot, wear gloves, eye protection and a mask, wet the droppings lightly and wipe them up. Do not sweep or blow them dry. Thick, old or large deposits and attics are better left to a team.

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

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.

Will the smell go away after cleanup?

Often yes, once the guano and soaked materials are removed and the area is treated. Deep stains in wood or drywall may need extra treatment, and the crew can say what to expect.

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.

Who pays for guano cleanup in a rental?

It depends on the lease and local law. Tenants should tell the landlord or manager right away. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say who is responsible.
