Most housing in Nassau County is occupied, with a vacancy rate of about 4%, but attics, chimneys and outbuildings can still go unchecked for years. Glenwood Landing gets about 45 inches of rain a year, and damp air keeps guano and soaked insulation wet, which strengthens odors and encourages mold on wood.
A typical bird & bat guano cleanup job includes:
- Disinfection of wood framing, joists and hard surfaces with EPA-registered products
- Commercial guano cleanup on warehouses, storefronts, loading docks and parking structures
- Removal of nests, feathers and carcasses left by birds or bats
- Cleaning of stained ceilings, walls and floors below an affected attic
- Cleanup of pigeon and bird droppings on roofs, ledges, balconies and rooftops

What Glenwood Landing Property Owners Ask About Guano and Histoplasmosis
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.
How much does guano removal cost?
It depends on the size of the area, the depth of the deposit, how much insulation must come out and how hard the space is to reach. A small ledge costs less than a full attic. The team sets the price after seeing the space.
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.
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.
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.
