Summers in Bozeman are milder, with July highs around 82 degrees, but guano in closed attics still dries and turns to fine dust over time. Only about 32% of homes in Bozeman were built before 1980, but newer roofs, vents and soffits can still give bats and birds a way in.

A typical bird & bat guano cleanup job includes:

HEPA-filtered vacuuming and air cleaning to capture fine dust after removal
Sorting, cleaning and sanitizing of stored items and belongings that can be saved
Odor removal and deodorizing of ammonia-like smells left by droppings
Cleanup of pigeon and bird droppings on roofs, ledges, balconies and rooftops

2. Wet down thick deposits

Heavy or caked droppings are softened with a light mist so they can be lifted without raising dust.

3. Remove what cannot be cleaned

Soiled insulation, stained cardboard and nesting debris go into sealed bags, and hard surfaces are scrubbed.

Odor and air are checked, and the owner is shown what was done and what remains for other trades.

Guano Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Bozeman, MT

How much does guano removal cost?

It depends on the size of the area, the depth of the deposit, how much insulation must come out and how hard the space is to reach. A small ledge costs less than a full attic. The team sets the price after seeing the space.

Can you get sick from bat droppings?

Yes, mainly from breathing in dust from dry droppings. Risk is higher with old, heavy buildup in enclosed spaces. People with asthma, lung conditions or weak immune systems need extra care and should stay out of the area.

Do I need to replace attic insulation after guano?

Usually, if droppings or urine have soaked into it. Soiled insulation holds contamination and odor and cannot be reliably cleaned. After removal, new insulation is installed as a separate job.

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 you clean pigeon droppings safely?

Wet the droppings lightly, scrape them into a bag, then wash and disinfect the surface. Wear gloves, eye protection and a mask. Large roost areas, rooftops and enclosed spaces are best left to a team.

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.
