How Animal Hoarding Cleanup Works in Grayson, GA

1. Confirm the animals are gone

Cleanup begins once animal control, a humane society or a rescue group has removed the animals. The crew works only in a home that is clear of animals.

2. Gross removal

Visible waste, spoiled food, bowls, cages and debris are hauled out in bags or bins. Items that cannot be cleaned are discarded.

3. Take out the source of odor

Soaked carpet, padding and drywall are removed so urine does not stay in the structure. Hard surfaces are scrubbed.

4. Clean, deodorize and walk through

Floors, walls and fixtures are cleaned and treated. The team walks the home and explains what may need repair or pest control.

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.

What is animal hoarding cleanup?

It is the cleaning of a home after too many animals were kept in it to be cared for well. Crews in protective gear remove waste and soiled materials, scrub, disinfect and treat odor. The animals are handled first by an agency such as animal control or a rescue group.

Will repairs be needed after cleanup?

Sometimes. Flooring, drywall, baseboards and paint may need replacing once soaked and chewed materials are removed. The team notes what it finds so a builder can plan the repairs.
