About 86% of homes in Pico Rivera were built before 1980, and older attics, vents and rooflines often have gaps where bats and birds can enter. Pico Rivera is on the drier side, with about 16 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:
- Commercial guano cleanup on warehouses, storefronts, loading docks and parking structures
- Cleanup of pigeon and bird droppings on roofs, ledges, balconies and rooftops
- Odor removal and deodorizing of ammonia-like smells left by droppings
- Containment and wet removal of bat guano from attics, wall voids and rafters
- Documentation of the work for buyers, inspectors, landlords and insurers

Bat and Bird Droppings Questions Answered in Pico Rivera
Can I clean a small amount of guano myself?
Sometimes. For a small spot, wear gloves, eye protection and a mask, wet the droppings lightly and wipe them up. Do not sweep or blow them dry. Thick, old or large deposits and attics are better left to a team.
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.
Is it safe to stay home during guano cleanup?
For work in a sealed attic, many people stay in the home while crews work with containment. For heavy contamination or open spaces, it may be better to stay away. The team will say what is best for your situation.
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 if droppings are on a roof or high ledge?
Roof and high ledge work needs fall protection and care around other people. Crews can remove and wash droppings there, and a property manager or owner can set up access.
Should I remove the bats first or clean the guano first?
The animals come out first. Wildlife professionals handle exclusion, and rules about bats can vary by species, season and place. Cleanup follows once the space is no longer in use by animals.
