What Upper Pohatcong Property Owners Ask About Guano and Histoplasmosis
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 Upper Pohatcong Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
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.
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.
What rules apply to guano cleanup in New Jersey?
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.
Do barns and old buildings need special handling?
Buildings with years of buildup can hold thick, dry, dusty guano that is easy to disturb. Crews ventilate, wet down and use respirators and containment to keep spores out of the air.
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.
