Bird dropping / guano cleanup in Lansing

Bird droppings, often called guano when accumulated in large quantities, are more than an eyesore on Lansing properties. They can corrode roofing materials, stain siding, and create slippery walkways that pose a safety hazard. Fresh droppings are acidic and can damage paint, metal, and stone surfaces if left untreated. Over time, dried guano becomes a powdery dust that can become airborne, carrying fungal spores such as Histoplasma capsulatum, which can cause respiratory illness when inhaled. For homes and businesses near the Grand River or in areas with heavy pigeon populations, regular guano removal is not just cosmetic—it is a matter of property maintenance and public health.

The cleanup process begins with an assessment of the affected area, whether it is a porch, balcony, warehouse rafter, or historic building facade. Our team uses personal protective equipment, including respirators and disposable coveralls, to avoid direct contact with dried guano. We wet the material with a disinfectant solution to suppress dust, then carefully scrape or vacuum the droppings into sealed bags. For porous surfaces like brick or concrete, we apply a specialized enzymatic cleaner that breaks down organic residues without damaging the substrate. The final step is a thorough rinse and application of a biocide to kill any remaining spores. We also treat nesting sites and install deterrents such as spikes or netting when requested, to prevent re-infestation. In Lansing, where older structures with ledges and eaves are common, this targeted approach protects both the building and the people inside.
