Many homes in Russell Gardens, about 95%, were built before 1980. Older insulation and wood framing soak up droppings and urine and hold odor. Most housing in Nassau County is occupied, with a vacancy rate of about 4%, but sheds, garages and attics still go unvisited for months and can hold rodent buildup.

A typical rodent droppings & hantavirus cleanup job includes:

  • Sorting, cleaning and sanitizing of stored items and belongings that can be saved
  • Tear-out of insulation soiled by droppings and urine in attics and crawl spaces
  • Disinfection of hard surfaces with EPA-registered products used by label directions
  • Commercial rodent cleanup for warehouses, restaurants, offices and storage units
  • HEPA-filtered vacuuming and air cleaning to remove fine particles after wet cleaning

Plastic barriers go up around the work area, and technicians suit up before entering.

3. Take out what cannot be cleaned

Soiled insulation, chewed fabric and cardboard are removed, and hard items are scrubbed and rinsed.

Surfaces are cleaned and disinfected, fine particles are captured with HEPA equipment, and the finished space is checked.

What Russell Gardens Property Owners Ask About Rat and Mouse Droppings

Is mouse poop toxic?

Mouse droppings and urine can carry germs, including hantavirus in some wild rodents. They are not poisonous like a chemical, but breathing in dust or touching them without protection can make people sick.

Will insurance pay for rodent cleanup?

Sometimes, but not always. Many homeowners policies exclude damage from pests that builds up over time, though wording differs. Call your insurer before work starts, take photos, keep receipts and ask what paperwork is needed.

What is the difference between pest control and rodent cleanup?

Pest control removes rodents and seals entry points. Rodent cleanup removes droppings, urine, nests and contaminated materials, and disinfects the area. Many properties need both, one after the other.

How do I know if mice have been in my attic?

Common signs are small pellet droppings, shredded nesting material, grease marks along beams, gnaw marks and a musky smell. Scratching sounds at night can also point to rodents. A cleanup team can judge how much needs to be removed.

Can cleanup stop mice and rats from coming back?

No. Cleanup removes contamination but does not block entry points. A pest professional can seal gaps and set traps. Removing droppings and nests does help, since odor trails can draw new rodents in.

What happens to droppings found in a kitchen or pantry?

Food, dishes and shelves that rodents touched are sorted. Items that cannot be sanitized are discarded, and hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected. Anything in sealed containers can usually be saved.
