Attic Sanitation and Restoration

While we all understand the importance of nuisance wildlife removal, few people also consider the step that comes after - the sanitation and restoration process. Well, All Star Animal Trapping is here to help with that, as well. In the lines below, discover our sanitation and restoration services, what they entail exactly, and why you might need them.

First of all, what is the point of attic sanitation and restoration?

And why the attic, specifically? Well, that’s large because nuisance wildlife tends to prefer areas of the home that are less inhabited, and severely cluttered. These make it easier for them to hide and build a nest, while also drastically decreasing the chances of being discovered. So a lot of animals, like raccoons, squirrels, or bats, actually tend to prefer setting up shop in the attic.

So why are we so concerned with sanitation and restoration? After all, the main problem has been taken care of - the animals are gone, and so you’ve got nothing to fear, right? 

Wrong. Our attic sanitation and restoration service have a bunch of benefits pinned to its name, such as:

• Fixing the entry point. This is one of the most important and immediate steps we need to take, in case of an animal invasion. Naturally, any animal, no matter how big or small, needs a space in the wall, roof, or vent, to enter your home. And the longer we leave that hole uncovered, the likelier it becomes to attract other animals. So one of our main tasks here is to fix up that hole and seal it in a way that discourages other animals from trying their luck in the future.

• Sanitizing the attic. This is another really important step that we should take as soon as the animal has been removed. The thing about nuisance wildlife is that they carry quite a lot of diseases and bacteria, which they leave behind, even after they’re gone. The presence of animal feces, urine, fur, skin, or other biological materials can expose you and yours to dangerous, at times even life-threatening illness, so the sooner we clean that up, the better.
• Restoring what’s been damaged. Another gnarly problem about a wild animal invasion is that they tend to leave behind quite a mess. Of course, the precise type of damage we’re looking at depends on the animal you have in residence, but common wildlife attic damage includes trampled insulation, gnawed wooden structures, stained furniture, and even holes in walls, support beams, or other structures, and even damage to the live wires. While some of these damaged items may be repaired, with the proper care, others will require complete replacement. Fortunately, we’re here to handle that for you, as well.

What services do we offer, in our attic sanitation and restoration program?

Our attic sanitation and restoration service focus on fixing all of the above problems. Of course, the precise services we’ll recommend will depend on your home and the damage that’s been done.

Now, depending on how quickly we caught the infestation, it’s quite likely that all we’ll be looking at will be an entry point that needs to be sealed, some droppings that need to be removed, and the room sanitized. 

Unfortunately, the longer a wild animal spends inside your attic, the more damage it’s apt to do. And in the case of some animals, like bats, it can be quite difficult to spot signs of an infestation. In some cases, the wild animals had been living in someone’s home for weeks before the homeowner caught on. This is why we recommend vigilance, as well as putting preventive methods into place, and scheduling regular inspections.

If there’s more damage to your attics, such as chewing surfaces, destroyed insulation, or damaged wires, we’re here to help you with that, as well. Our team of wildlife removal professionals specializes in the clean-up, as well as the animal removal process itself.
