Common Questions About Guano Removal in Rayville, LA

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.

Why shouldn't guano be swept or blown?

Dry droppings turn to fine dust that floats in the air and can carry fungal spores. Sweeping or blowing sends that dust into the air where you breathe it. Wetting first keeps particles on the surface.

Who pays for guano cleanup in a rental?

It depends on the lease and local law. Tenants should tell the landlord or manager right away. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say who is responsible.

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.

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 Rayville Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.

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.
