Whenever an animal makes itself at home in an attic, they like to get comfortable. This can mean tearing up boxes, ripping into insulation, and defecating all over the place. That’s why it is vital to choose a quality wildlife removal company that offers clean-up and repair services after the animals are excluded from the property.
Nesting
When an animal moves in, they usually don’t just find a corner to sleep in. Often, the animal(s) will look for any materials nearby that can be used for nesting. This can include bringing in debris and plant materials from outside, but they can also scrounge the attic. Cardboard boxes, clothing, books, and more can be torn into to make bedding for these invading critters. Some animals will even look towards your insulation to make their nest. Proper clean-up includes clearing out boxes and stored materials that the animals damaged.
Waste Materials
Everybody poops. Whether you have raccoons, bats, or squirrels in your attic, waste material can be a major issue. Effective cleaning of surfaces for waste material is key to removing the associated health risks. Animal waste can be host to pathogens, viruses, and bacteria that can be incredibly harmful to you and your family. A quality wildlife removal company will be well-equipped to clean and disinfect surfaces with waste material to help get rid of these health risks.
Drafts and Insulation
As mentioned above, it is not uncommon for animals to tear through the insulation. Additionally, animals small enough to fit in the walls of your home, such as rodents, may burrow through insulation and travel through the walls. This can create serious breaches in your home insulation. Refilling the insulation and clearing any waste product in the walls can be an important step in restoring your home.
Not All Wildlife Removal Companies are the Same
When looking to hire a wildlife removal company, you should understand that not all offer the same services. Generally, humane wildlife removal companies offer home cleaning and restoration services, while inhumane ones may not. But not all take the time to work with you to ensure that repairs are done properly. At New York/New Jersey Wildlife Removal Inc., we work hard to restore your home after excluding, cleaning, and disinfecting.
