What Are The Negative Effects Of Having Bat Droppings On Clothes?
Hi, I have just moved to gold coast area. Just wandering if I should be concerned about bat droppings etc getting on clothes etc outside. I know we do have some bats where we live. Just concerned about diseases being spread through poo, wandering how long poo etc is infectious in the enivironment. I have a five month old baby.
Hello, Small number of bat droppings don't cause any problem and is not considered as health risk because their dropping doesn't have any moisture and consists mainly of Skelton of insect which gets crumbled to dust,but large number of droppings can cause allergic reactions and gastrointestinal infections. Thanks
