About 40% of homes in Jacksonville were built before 1980, and older attics, vents and rooflines often have gaps where bats and birds can enter. With roughly 48 inches of annual rainfall in Carver Manor, roof leaks and humid attics are common, and moisture makes droppings heavier and harder to remove.
A typical bird & bat guano cleanup job includes:
The crew checks for weak flooring, tight access and other hazards, then sets up lighting, protective gear and containment.
Technicians put on respirators and suits, then lightly wet the guano to keep fine particles from rising.
Guano, soiled insulation and nesting debris are removed by hand or with HEPA-filtered tools and sealed in heavy bags.
Odor and air are checked, and the owner is shown what was done and what remains for other trades.

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.
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.
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 Carver Manor Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
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.
Worker safety follows OSHA rules for hazardous dust, and waste disposal is handled according to local requirements. Rules about moving or excluding bats and other wildlife can vary by species and season, so check with a wildlife professional first.
