Bat Guano Clean Up

 

Guano Clean Up & Histoplasmosis Exposure Risks

 

 

CLEANUP
If the infestation has been extensive, both from a time period and size of colony perspective, and cleanup services are desired, OK Wildlife Control®, L.L.C. can arrange for the sanitary cleanup of the droppings (guano).

WARRANTIES and QUALIFICATIONS

  • State Licensed
  • OK State Coordinator for the National White Nosed Syndrome Task Force
  • ALL Bat-Proofing carries a 5 yrs. Warranty, in writing.
  • Humane
  • Annual site inspections included, following Bat-proofing.

* Yearly when maternity colonies are raising their young, it makes complete exclusion during this time frame impractical. Whether you choose OK Wildlife Control®, L.L.C. or another wildlife control firm, be sure and ask them how they handle bats during the months of June to August.

HEALTH TIP
If you wake up in your bedroom and a bat is flying around the room DO NOT release the bat. Local or State Health Departments may want to test the animal. Contact a trained professional to capture the bat.

Guano, Histoplasmosis, and our Services

Large accumulations of guano sometimes breeds a fungus called Histoplasmosis (see article, Histoplasmosis – The Other Hazard of Bats). This fungus can infect an eye or a lung, and in a serious case, you can lose your eye or lung to this infection. Here are some facts to keep in mind if you’ve had bats removed from your home or building:

  • Scattered droppings are not dangerous. They can be swept or vacuumed up.
  • Piles of guano more than an inch deep could contain Histoplasmosis.
  • Histoplasmosis spores become air born when/if the piles are disturbed.
  • If the accumulated guano is isolated in a wall, ceiling or seldom used attic – you may be fine leaving it alone. Over time, the guano will dry out, and the fungus will die – provided the bats do not return to keep adding moisture/new droppings and urine to the pile.

When guano should be removed?

There are several situations that call for guano clean up. They include:

  • Guano is located somewhere that people may disturb it.
  • Remodel is planned in the area where guano is located.
  • An odor persists after the bats have been excluded.
  • The home or building is frequented by the “elderly” and / or “children”.
  • People in the home or building are having respiratory, circulatory or auto-immune problems.
  • Commercial properties where liability is a concern.
