Most housing in Missoula County is occupied, with a vacancy rate of about 8%, but attics, chimneys and outbuildings can still go unchecked for years. Bonner-West Riverside is on the drier side, with about 17 inches of rain a year, so old guano dries out fast and turns to fine dust that must be wetted before removal.
The work often covers:
- Containment and wet removal of bat guano from attics, wall voids and rafters
- Sealing and bagging of contaminated waste for proper disposal
- Removal and disposal of insulation soaked with guano, urine and nesting debris
- Cleaning of stained ceilings, walls and floors below an affected attic
- Removal of nests, feathers and carcasses left by birds or bats

Bat and Bird Droppings Questions Answered in Bonner-West Riverside
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.
What rules apply to guano cleanup in Montana?
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.
Does guano damage insulation?
Yes. Insulation soaks up droppings, urine and odor and rarely comes back clean, so soiled insulation is usually removed and replaced. A team can tell you how far the damage goes after seeing the attic.
Can guano get into ductwork or vents?
Yes, if birds or bats roost near vents or intakes, droppings and dust can enter air paths. Cleanup may include treating vent openings and nearby surfaces.
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.
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.
