Urine, Feces and Odor Cleanup for Pocket, Sacramento, CA Animal Hoarding Cases
Extreme cleaning after animal hoarding is a multi-stage project: protective setup, waste and debris removal, material removal, disinfecting, odor treatment and a final check of each room.
When animal control or a rescue group has cleared the home, families and property owners in Pocket and Sacramento County can call Pocket Biohazard Cleanup Help. You get a crew in protective gear to remove animal waste, soaked materials and odor.
Only about 6% of homes in Sacramento are vacant, so most animal hoarding cleanups here involve a home that someone owns or rents and wants to restore. Rainfall in Pocket averages only about 19 inches a year, but dry air does not remove urine from subfloors. The source still has to be taken out.

- Control of ammonia and dust with air movement and respiratory protection for the crew
- Clearing of food, bowls, crates, cages and supplies left in the home
- Scrubbing and disinfecting surfaces with EPA-registered products kept wet for the label contact time
- Taking out carpet, padding, drywall and flooring soaked with urine or waste
- Odor treatment at the source, including subfloors, walls and furniture

What health risks come from animal waste in a home?

Can I clean up after animal hoarding myself?
Only if the area is small, the surface is hard and the air is easy to breathe, and then with gloves, a mask and open windows. Widespread waste, soaked floors, strong odor or pests call for a crew.
