Do not sweep, blow or vacuum it. Keep people and pets away and leave it undisturbed until you know the size of the job. Call West Concord Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
Histoplasmosis is a lung infection linked to a fungus that can grow in soil and droppings from birds and bats. People are exposed by breathing in spores. Many exposed people have no symptoms, and anyone who feels unwell after being around guano should tell a doctor.
Common signs are dark droppings that crumble, stains on walls near gaps, a strong ammonia smell and squeaking or scratching at dusk and dawn. Droppings often collect in piles below entry points. A wildlife professional can confirm it.
Guano dust is easy to breathe in, so protection and containment come first.
