About 70% of homes in Los Alamitos were built before 1980, and older attics, vents and rooflines often have gaps where bats and birds can enter. Summers in Los Alamitos are milder, with July highs around 81 degrees, but guano in closed attics still dries and turns to fine dust over time.
What bird & bat guano cleanup covers:
- Cleanup after wildlife exclusion, once bats or birds have been removed by a professional

- Containment and wet removal of bat guano from attics, wall voids and rafters

How Guano Cleanup Works in Los Alamitos, CA
2. Wet down thick deposits
Heavy or caked droppings are softened with a light mist so they can be lifted without raising dust.
3. Remove what cannot be cleaned
Soiled insulation, stained cardboard and nesting debris go into sealed bags, and hard surfaces are scrubbed.
4. Treat and verify
The space is disinfected, deodorized and inspected, and the crew explains what repairs or insulation work may follow.

What Los Alamitos Property Owners Ask About Guano and Histoplasmosis
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.
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 Los Alamitos Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
Can you get sick from bat droppings?
Yes, mainly from breathing in dust from dry droppings. Risk is higher with old, heavy buildup in enclosed spaces. People with asthma, lung conditions or weak immune systems need extra care and should stay out of the area.
How do I know if I have bats in my attic?
Common signs are dark droppings that crumble, stains on walls near gaps, a strong ammonia smell and squeaking or scratching at dusk and dawn. Droppings often collect in piles below entry points. A wildlife professional can confirm it.
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.
Can pigeon droppings damage a roof or building?
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.
