Cleaning a Home After Animals Are Removed in Elliot Park, Minneapolis, MN

Summer highs in Elliot Park are milder, around 83 degrees in July, but a shut-up house with animal waste still builds ammonia and attracts flies and fleas.

The work often covers:
- Taking out carpet, padding, drywall and flooring soaked with urine or waste
- Respectful handling of the remains of deceased animals when they are found, with proper disposal
- Odor treatment at the source, including subfloors, walls and furniture
- Containment of the affected area so contamination does not spread to clean rooms
- Cleanup of fleas, flies, droppings and other pest debris left behind

What happens to deceased animals found in the home?
They are handled with care and disposed of properly, as local rules require. The cleanup team can explain how this is done and which agency to contact if needed.
How long does animal hoarding cleanup take?
A single room is often finished in a day, while a full house can take several days. Size, waste, soaked materials and odor change the timeline. Pest control and repairs come after the cleaning.
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.
What is animal hoarding cleanup?
It is the cleaning of a home after too many animals were kept in it to be cared for well. Crews in protective gear remove waste and soiled materials, scrub, disinfect and treat odor. The animals are handled first by an agency such as animal control or a rescue group.
Who pays for animal hoarding cleanup?
