Animal Hoarding Clean Up in Beltsville, MD: Waste, Odor and Damage Removed

Hoarding is a recognized mental health condition, and animal hoarding cleanup deals with the home that remains. The work is done without blame and with respect for the person who lived there.

Beltsville sees about 44 inches of rain a year, and damp air and leaks make urine-soaked flooring and walls more prone to mold and odor.

  • Removal of animal urine, feces, bedding and soiled debris from floors, rooms and crates

From Animal Removal to a Clean Home: Cleanup in Beltsville, MD

1. Confirm the animals are gone

Cleanup begins once animal control, a humane society or a rescue group has removed the animals. The crew works only in a home that is clear of animals.

2. Suit up and set up

Workers put on protective suits, gloves, boots and respiratory protection. Windows, fans and sealed areas keep clean rooms clean.

3. Take out the source of odor

Soaked carpet, padding and drywall are removed so urine does not stay in the structure. Hard surfaces are scrubbed.

4. Odor control and final inspection

Odor is treated where it started, and each room is inspected. The owner receives notes about remaining damage or follow-up work.
