Need residential or commercial rodent cleanup in Lakewood or nearby parts of Fulton County? Call Lakewood Biohazard Cleanup Help for help with your attic, crawl space, barn, workshop, pantry, ductwork or storage room.

Many homes in Atlanta, about 43%, were built before 1980. Older insulation and wood framing soak up droppings and urine and hold odor. A July high of 90 degrees in Lakewood affects how fast droppings dry out and how strong the smell of urine becomes in closed spaces.

A typical rodent droppings & hantavirus cleanup job includes:

  • Disinfection of hard surfaces with EPA-registered products used by label directions
  • HEPA-filtered vacuuming and air cleaning to remove fine particles after wet cleaning
  • Cleanup after pest control, once rodents are removed and entry points are sealed
  • Tear-out of insulation soiled by droppings and urine in attics and crawl spaces
  • Cleanup of droppings in ductwork, vents and around heating and cooling equipment

From Droppings to a Clean, Sanitized Space in Lakewood

1. Ventilate and assess

The crew opens the space where safe, keeps people out, and checks how far droppings, urine and nests have spread.

2. Soak, never sweep

Disinfectant is applied to droppings and nesting areas first, which holds dust down during removal.

3. Wet-clean and tear out

Droppings are wetted, wiped up and bagged, and insulation or cardboard that cannot be cleaned is cut out.

4. Sanitize and deodorize

Remaining surfaces are disinfected and the musky smell is treated at its source.

Rodent Droppings Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Lakewood, Atlanta, GA

Can rodent droppings get into my air ducts?

Yes. Mice and rats can enter ductwork and leave droppings there, and the heating and cooling system can then move dust and odor through the house. Cleanup may include treating vents and duct openings.

Who pays for rodent cleanup in a rental, the landlord or the tenant?

It depends on the lease and local law. Tenants should tell the landlord or manager right away. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say who is responsible.

Can cleanup stop mice and rats from coming back?

No. Cleanup removes contamination but does not block entry points. A pest professional can seal gaps and set traps. Removing droppings and nests does help, since odor trails can draw new rodents in.

What should I do first if I find droppings?

Do not sweep, vacuum or blow them. Keep children and pets away, ventilate the space, and decide whether it is a small spot or a larger job. Call Lakewood Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.

Is mouse poop toxic?

Mouse droppings and urine can carry germs, including hantavirus in some wild rodents. They are not poisonous like a chemical, but breathing in dust or touching them without protection can make people sick.

What is the difference between pest control and rodent cleanup?

Pest control removes rodents and seals entry points. Rodent cleanup removes droppings, urine, nests and contaminated materials, and disinfects the area. Many properties need both, one after the other.
