Questions Owners and Landlords in Butler, OH Ask About Animal Waste Cleanup
Does the resident need to be present?
Not always. If access can be arranged, the caller does not need to be on site. When the resident wants to be there, the crew welcomes it and works at a pace that suits them.
How should I treat the person who kept the animals?
With kindness and without blame. Many people who kept too many animals loved them and wanted to help. Feelings run high after animals are removed, and support from a doctor or counselor can help.
Can I clean up after animal hoarding myself?
Only if the area is small, the surface is hard and the air is easy to breathe, and then with gloves, a mask and open windows. Widespread waste, soaked floors, strong odor or pests call for a crew.
Can the odor be fully removed?
Often yes, when the source is treated. Urine that soaked into subfloors and walls has to be removed or sealed, and covering the smell with fragrance does not last. The team can say what is likely once it has seen the home.
What if pests such as fleas or rodents are in the home?
The crew works with added protection and removes the waste and debris pests feed on. Pest control is a separate trade, and the team can say when to schedule it, usually before or soon after cleaning.
What health risks come from animal waste in a home?
Urine and feces release ammonia, which irritates the eyes and lungs. Waste can carry bacteria and parasites, and some diseases pass between animals and people. Fleas, ticks, rodents, dust and mold add to the problem. Anyone who feels unwell after time in the home should see a doctor.
