Rodent & Bird Dropping Mitigation

Have You Checked Your Attic Recently For Rodent Droppings?

Some homes come with unwanted guests who leave unwanted droppings that cause a foul odor. Did you know inhaling or direct contact with rodent excreta (urine, feces, saliva) can cause SERIOUS long term effects?

Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome

HPS is a serious respiratory disease transmitted through infected rodents saliva, urine & droppings. HPS can be contracted simply by inhaling aerosolized virus. Symptoms Include:

Abdominal Pain
Diarrhea
Vomiting
Nausea
Headache
Dizziness
Fatigue
Fever
muscle aches

The best way to prevent rodents from entering your home is locating & sealing all openings that small animals could use as entrance points. Steel wool or cement are good filler options, and metal screens work just as well.

Insulation Removal

Often when mitigating the attic clients will ask to remove the contaminated insulation. Contaminated insulation is no better than an attic that needs to be mitigated from animal droppings. Affected insulation can easily absorb and contain diseases even after the droppings have been removed. Once contaminated insulation is removed, we will sanitize and deodorize the area.
