An attic guano cleanup removes droppings from joists, beams and insulation, and treats the structure afterward. Insulation soaked with guano is usually discarded because it holds odor and contamination.
Guano is a respiratory risk, so your Butler property gets containment, wet methods and protective gear, then disinfecting and inspection before the space is handed back to you. For Morris County owners, call Butler Biohazard Cleanup Help.
Butler gets about 48 inches of rain a year, and damp air keeps guano and soaked insulation wet, which strengthens odors and encourages mold on wood. Many homes in Butler, about 75%, were built before 1980. Older insulation and wood framing soak up droppings and hold the smell.
