Animals Leave More Than a Mess

When animals infest a crawlspace or attic, they chew wires, shred insulation, and leave droppings that contaminate your air. The smell seeps into living spaces, and waste attracts more pests. Without professional cleanup, contamination spreads and causes structural problems. We remove waste, sanitize, and restore your space safely.

Why DIY Cleanup Is Risky

Animal waste carries bacteria and parasites that spread through your air. Gloves and trash bags don’t protect you. Disturbing waste without containment spreads contamination further. Professional crews use sealed removal and disinfectants that truly neutralize hazards.
