Urine, Feces and Odor Cleanup for Hettinger, ND Animal Hoarding Cases

Animal hoarding clean up is a biohazard-style job: ammonia, bacteria, parasites and dust are all present. Crews use protective suits, respiratory protection and EPA-registered disinfectants.

Property owners across Adams County can turn to Hettinger Biohazard Cleanup Help for animal hoarding clean up in Hettinger. You get a crew that removes waste, treats ammonia odor and cleans each room, with respect for the person who lived there.

About 22% of homes in Adams County are vacant, and a property that sat empty after animals were removed can hold waste and odor for a long time. Summer highs in Hettinger are milder, around 85 degrees in July, but a shut-up house with animal waste still builds ammonia and attracts flies and fleas.

The work often covers:

  • Cleanup of fleas, flies, droppings and other pest debris left behind
  • Sorting out personal papers, photos and valuables for the owner or family
  • Odor treatment at the source, including subfloors, walls and furniture
  • Containment of the affected area so contamination does not spread to clean rooms
  • Respectful handling of the remains of deceased animals when they are found, with proper disposal
