Questions Owners and Landlords in Lake Butler, FL Ask About Animal Waste Cleanup

What does the owner need to do before calling?

Confirm that the animals are out, take photos if possible and note any deadline from a landlord, a city office or a sale. If you are the owner or caller, you do not need every detail before calling.

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.

How should I treat the person who kept the animals?

With kindness and without blame. Many people who kept too many animals loved them and wanted to help. Feelings run high after animals are removed, and support from a doctor or counselor can help.

Do the animals have to be gone before cleanup starts?

Yes. Cleanup does not begin while animals are still in the home. Animal control, a humane society or a rescue group should clear the property first, and the cleanup team can then plan its work.

Is animal hoarding cleanup different from pet odor cleaning?

Yes. Pet odor cleaning is meant for a few accidents on a surface. Animal hoarding cleanup deals with widespread waste, soaked materials, ammonia, pests and structural odor, and it needs protective gear and removal work.

Can the odor be fully removed?

Often yes, when the source is treated. Urine that soaked into subfloors and walls has to be removed or sealed, and covering the smell with fragrance does not last. The team can say what is likely once it has seen the home.

Handling a property in Lake Butler after animal control has left?

Owners, landlords, relatives and caregivers are all welcome to call.
