Questions Owners and Landlords in Tioga, Philadelphia, PA Ask About Animal Waste Cleanup

How should I treat the person who kept the animals?

With kindness and without blame. Many people who kept too many animals loved them and wanted to help. Feelings run high after animals are removed, and support from a doctor or counselor can help.

What if pests such as fleas or rodents are in the home?

The crew works with added protection and removes the waste and debris pests feed on. Pest control is a separate trade, and the team can say when to schedule it, usually before or soon after cleaning.

Does the resident need to be present?

Not always. If access can be arranged, the caller does not need to be on site. When the resident wants to be there, the crew welcomes it and works at a pace that suits them.

Is it safe to enter a home after animal hoarding?

Not without protection. Ammonia, dust and germs can affect the eyes, lungs and skin. Crews wear protective suits, gloves, boots and respiratory protection, and they set up air control to protect clean areas.

Who pays for animal hoarding cleanup?

Often the owner, resident or family pays. For a rental, the lease and local law decide between landlord and tenant. Animal control or a rescue group takes care of the animals and usually does not pay for cleaning the home. Some communities offer help for older adults or people with disabilities.

How much does animal hoarding cleanup cost?

It varies widely. The size of the home, the amount of waste, soaked flooring, odor depth and pests all change the price. The cleanup team gives a real price after seeing the home. Be careful with any quote given sight unseen.
