Why Sanitation Is Critical
Rodents leave behind far more than droppings. Their urine, feces, nesting materials, and carcasses contaminate attic insulation and can harbor dangerous pathogens including Hantavirus, Salmonella, and Leptospirosis. These contaminants can become airborne and circulate through your HVAC system into your living spaces.
Simply removing the rodents is not enough. Contaminated insulation must be removed and replaced, and all surfaces must be treated with hospital-grade disinfectants before new insulation is installed.

FAQ
Yes. The contamination left behind — droppings, urine, nesting materials — remains a health hazard even after rodents are removed. It can also attract new rodents due to scent trails.
Signs include visible droppings in the attic, a strong ammonia odor, stained or compressed insulation, and nesting materials. A professional inspection is the most reliable way to assess contamination.
We strongly advise against it. Disturbing dried rodent waste releases airborne particles that can cause serious illness. Professional remediation with proper PPE and containment procedures is the safe approach.
We install TAP (Thermal Acoustical Pest Control) insulation, which is treated with borate — a natural pest deterrent that kills insects that come into contact with it while remaining safe for humans and pets.
