Attic Pros knows how frustrating and unhealthy it can be to discover rodents have made themselves at home in your attic or crawl space. The problem doesn’t end when the rodents are gone. In fact, the real issue often begins after removal — with the cleanup. Many homeowners are surprised to find out just how much damage and contamination rodents leave behind.

If you’ve dealt with a rodent infestation recently or suspect one, it’s time to take the next crucial step: thorough cleanup. It’s not just about appearances—it’s about protecting your family’s health and preventing future issues.

Why Rodent Cleanup Is So Important

Rodents may be small, but the mess they leave behind is anything but. From droppings and urine to shredded insulation and chewed wires, their presence can create serious health hazards and long-term damage.

Here are just a few of the reasons why professional cleanup is essential:

• Health Risks: Rodent droppings and urine can carry harmful bacteria and viruses, including hantavirus and salmonella. These contaminants don’t go away on their own.

• Lingering Odors: Even after rodents are removed, foul odors may persist. These smells not only make your home unpleasant but can also attract other pests.

• Structural Damage: Rodents chew through wood, insulation, and wiring, which can compromise the safety of your home and even increase fire risks.

• Recurring Infestations: If you don’t clean and seal the area properly, rodents may return. Their scent trails can attract new invaders looking for shelter.

What a Professional Rodent Cleanup Service Includes

Many homeowners assume they can handle the cleanup themselves, but that can be both unsafe and ineffective. That’s where rodent clean up services come in. At Attic Pros, we provide comprehensive solutions to make your home clean, safe, and rodent-free.

Here’s what our professional service includes:

1. Inspection and Assessment

Before beginning any cleanup, our team inspects the area thoroughly. We look for contamination, damage, and potential entry points. This helps us understand the extent of the problem and create a plan tailored to your home.

2. Droppings and Nest Removal

We carefully remove rodent droppings, nests, and any contaminated debris. Special tools and protective gear ensure the process is done safely without spreading harmful particles into the air.

3. Sanitization and Decontamination

Using commercial-grade disinfectants, we sanitize the entire affected area. This eliminates bacteria, viruses, and odors. We also use odor-neutralizing treatments to restore fresh, clean air in your attic or crawl space.

4. Insulation Removal and Replacement

Rodents often tear up insulation to build nests or contaminate it with waste. If needed, we remove and dispose of the old insulation, then install high-quality, energy-efficient replacement insulation.

5. Sealing and Prevention

Cleanup isn’t complete without preventing the problem from coming back. We seal off all possible entry points, such as holes, vents, or gaps, to block future access for rodents.

6. Final Inspection

Once everything is cleaned and secured, we perform a final inspection to ensure your attic or crawl space is safe, healthy, and ready to use again.
