Only about 46% of homes in Harbison Canyon were built before 1980, but newer roofs, vents and soffits can still give bats and birds a way in. Harbison Canyon is on the drier side, with about 16 inches of rain a year, so old guano dries out fast and turns to fine dust that must be wetted before removal.
A typical bird & bat guano cleanup job includes:
- Sorting, cleaning and sanitizing of stored items and belongings that can be saved
- Commercial guano cleanup on warehouses, storefronts, loading docks and parking structures
- HEPA-filtered vacuuming and air cleaning to capture fine dust after removal
- Removal and disposal of insulation soaked with guano, urine and nesting debris
- Sealing and bagging of contaminated waste for proper disposal

Bat and Bird Droppings Questions Answered in Harbison Canyon
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 Harbison Canyon Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
Can pigeon droppings damage a roof or building?
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.
Should I remove the bats first or clean the guano first?
The animals come out first. Wildlife professionals handle exclusion, and rules about bats can vary by species, season and place. Cleanup follows once the space is no longer in use by animals.
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.
Do barns and old buildings need special handling?
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.
What if droppings are on a roof or high ledge?
Roof and high ledge work needs fall protection and care around other people. Crews can remove and wash droppings there, and a property manager or owner can set up access.
