Most housing in St. Paul is occupied, with a vacancy rate of about 6%, but attics, chimneys and outbuildings can still go unchecked for years. Many homes in St. Paul, about 78%, were built before 1980. Older insulation and wood framing soak up droppings and hold the smell.
The work often covers:
- Removal of nests, feathers and carcasses left by birds or bats
- Commercial guano cleanup on warehouses, storefronts, loading docks and parking structures
- Cleanup after wildlife exclusion, once bats or birds have been removed by a professional
- Containment and wet removal of bat guano from attics, wall voids and rafters
- Odor removal and deodorizing of ammonia-like smells left by droppings
How Guano Cleanup Works in Highland Park, St. Paul, MN
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. Disinfect and inspect
Wood, drywall and hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected, odor is treated, and the crew checks the finished space.

What Highland Park Property Owners Ask About Guano and Histoplasmosis
Does guano damage insulation?
Yes. Insulation soaks up droppings, urine and odor and rarely comes back clean, so soiled insulation is usually removed and replaced. A team can tell you how far the damage goes after seeing the attic.
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.
How do I know if I have bats in my attic?
Common signs are dark droppings that crumble, stains on walls near gaps, a strong ammonia smell and squeaking or scratching at dusk and dawn. Droppings often collect in piles below entry points. A wildlife professional can confirm it.
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.
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.
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.
