Many homes in Minneapolis, about 72%, were built before 1980. Older insulation and wood framing soak up droppings and hold the smell. Summers in Seward are milder, with July highs around 83 degrees, but guano in closed attics still dries and turns to fine dust over time.

A typical bird & bat guano cleanup job includes:

Removal of nests, feathers and carcasses left by birds or bats
Commercial guano cleanup on warehouses, storefronts, loading docks and parking structures
Disinfection of wood framing, joists and hard surfaces with EPA-registered products
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

What Happens During an Attic Guano Cleanup in Seward

1. Safety first

The crew checks for weak flooring, tight access and other hazards, then sets up lighting, protective gear and containment.

2. Contain and suit up

Plastic barriers seal the work zone, and technicians put on respirators and disposable suits.

3. Wet, scrape and clear

Droppings are wetted, scraped and collected, and insulation that cannot be cleaned is cut out and bagged.

4. Sanitize and deodorize

Remaining surfaces are disinfected, and the ammonia-like odor is treated at its source.

Common Questions About Guano Removal in Seward, Minneapolis, MN

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.

Is it safe to stay home during guano cleanup?

For work in a sealed attic, many people stay in the home while crews work with containment. For heavy contamination or open spaces, it may be better to stay away. The team will say what is best for your situation.

How do I get rid of the guano smell?

The odor comes from droppings and urine soaked into wood and insulation, so the fix is removing the source and treating surfaces. Air fresheners only cover it. Deep stains in wood may need extra treatment.

Will insurance pay for guano cleanup?

Sometimes, but not always. Many homeowners policies exclude damage from animals that builds up over time, and wording differs. Call your insurer before work starts, take photos and keep receipts.

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.

What rules apply to guano cleanup in Minnesota?

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.
