Most housing in Cobb County is occupied, with a vacancy rate of about 6%, but attics, chimneys and outbuildings can still go unchecked for years. With roughly 54 inches of annual rainfall in Kennesaw, roof leaks and humid attics are common, and moisture makes droppings heavier and harder to remove.

Cleanup after wildlife exclusion, once bats or birds have been removed by a professional
Cleaning of stained ceilings, walls and floors below an affected attic
Containment and wet removal of bat guano from attics, wall voids and rafters
Removal and disposal of insulation soaked with guano, urine and nesting debris
Sealing and bagging of contaminated waste for proper disposal

Step by Step: Safe Guano Removal in Kennesaw, GA

A cleanup technician maps the droppings, stains and damaged insulation in attics, lofts or on 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. Take out contaminated material

Guano, matted insulation and nesting debris are packed out, and salvageable items are set aside for cleaning.

4. Document and hand back

The owner receives a summary of the work for buyers, inspectors or insurers, and the area is cleared for use.

Guano Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Kennesaw, GA

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.

What is histoplasmosis?

Histoplasmosis is a lung infection linked to a fungus that can grow in soil and droppings from birds and bats. People are exposed by breathing in spores. Many exposed people have no symptoms, and anyone who feels unwell after being around guano should tell a doctor.

Is guano dangerous?

It can be. Dry guano releases fine dust, and some bird and bat droppings can carry a fungus linked to histoplasmosis, a lung infection. Many people never get sick, but older, heavy deposits carry more risk. Avoid stirring it up.

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

Will the smell go away after cleanup?

Often yes, once the guano and soaked materials are removed and the area is treated. Deep stains in wood or drywall may need extra treatment, and the crew can say what to expect.

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.
