About 60% of homes in Waynesville were built before 1980, and older attics, vents and rooflines often have gaps where bats and birds can enter. Waynesville gets about 50 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:
The crew checks for weak flooring, tight access and other hazards, then sets up lighting, protective gear and containment.
Plastic barriers seal the work zone, and technicians put on respirators and disposable suits.
Soiled insulation, stained cardboard and nesting debris go into sealed bags, and hard surfaces are scrubbed.
HEPA filtration clears the air, surfaces are disinfected, and the owner is walked through the result.

Yes. Droppings are acidic and can stain and wear down paint, metal and roofing over time. They also clog gutters and drains and create slip hazards on walkways. Cleanup and deterrents work best together.
Buildings with years of buildup can hold thick, dry, dusty guano that is easy to disturb. Crews ventilate, wet down and use respirators and containment to keep spores out of the air.
For work in a sealed attic, many people stay in the home while crews work with containment. For heavy contamination or open spaces, it may be better to stay away. The team will say what is best for your situation.
