Histoplasmosis is a lung infection linked to a fungus that can grow in soil enriched by droppings from birds and bats. Guano cleanup is designed to keep those spores from being breathed in.

Pacific Beach is on the drier side, with about 11 inches of rain a year, so old guano dries out fast and turns to fine dust that must be wetted before removal. Older and newer buildings in San Diego both attract roosting animals, and attic guano is handled the same way: wet down, remove, bag and disinfect.
A typical bird & bat guano cleanup job includes:
- Commercial guano cleanup on warehouses, storefronts, loading docks and parking structures
- Removal and disposal of insulation soaked with guano, urine and nesting debris
- Disinfection of wood framing, joists and hard surfaces with EPA-registered products
- Cleaning of stained ceilings, walls and floors below an affected attic

Guano Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Pacific Beach, San Diego, CA
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.
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.
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 Pacific Beach Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
Does guano cleanup stop bats or birds from coming back?
No. Cleanup removes the mess but does not block entry points. A wildlife professional can seal gaps and use deterrents. Removing droppings and odor does help, since scent can draw animals back.
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.
Is bird poop a biohazard?
Large amounts of bird droppings are treated as a contamination hazard because they can hold germs and fungal spores. A small spot outdoors is a simple wash. Thick buildup in a closed space needs protective gear and wet methods.
