Most housing in Lafayette Parish is occupied, with a vacancy rate of about 10%, but attics, chimneys and outbuildings can still go unchecked for years. Carencro gets about 65 inches of rain a year, and damp air keeps guano and soaked insulation wet, which strengthens odors and encourages mold on wood.
A typical bird & bat guano cleanup job includes:
- Cleanup of pigeon and bird droppings on roofs, ledges, balconies and rooftops
- Odor removal and deodorizing of ammonia-like smells left by droppings
- Cleanup after wildlife exclusion, once bats or birds have been removed by a professional
- Commercial guano cleanup on warehouses, storefronts, loading docks and parking structures
- HEPA-filtered vacuuming and air cleaning to capture fine dust after removal
How Guano Cleanup Works in Carencro, LA
2. Wet down thick deposits
Heavy or caked droppings are softened with a light mist so they can be lifted without raising dust.
3. Wet, scrape and clear
Droppings are wetted, scraped and collected, and insulation that cannot be cleaned is cut out and bagged.
4. Clean the air and surfaces
HEPA filtration clears the air, surfaces are disinfected, and the owner is walked through the result.

Guano Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Carencro, LA
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.
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.
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.
How do you clean pigeon droppings safely?
Wet the droppings lightly, scrape them into a bag, then wash and disinfect the surface. Wear gloves, eye protection and a mask. Large roost areas, rooftops and enclosed spaces are best left to a team.
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.
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.
