A very important step in the wildlife control and animal removal process is the attic cleanup, particularly if you have had wildlife (raccoons, bats, birds, squirrels, rats, or mice) living in the attic of your Nassau County, Long Island, NY home. Raccoons will defecate everywhere in your attic. The fecal waste of raccoons contains roundworm eggs that can infect you and your pets and in some cases has resulted in death. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, anyone who is exposed to environments where raccoons live is potentially at risk of becoming infected with raccoon roundworms. Symptoms of raccoon roundworm infection may include, nausea, tiredness, liver enlargement, loss of coordination, lack of attention to people and surroundings, loss of muscle control, coma and blindness.
Most animals will leave behind quite a bit of biohazardous waste, not to mention parasites, including fleas and mites. If you have had animals in the attic, the animal's scent, or odor in your attic will serve to attract other animals to make their home in the attic of your Nassau County, NY residence. Therefore, an animal removal should always be followed by an attic cleanup to both sanitize and eliminate the scent of the animals. Our licensed Nassau County, Long Island contractors will provide you with a free estimate for attic restoration services. Attic cleanup and damage caused by raccoons is covered by most homeowner insurance policies. Our contractors work closely with insurance adjusters to minimize out of pocket expenses by Nassau County, NY homeowners.

In the case of rodent droppings, their feces is associated with several types of diseases that humans and pets can contract, including Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome and Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis. The urine of both rats and raccoons may contain the disease, Leptospirosis, which can be spread to both humans and pets. Rodents communicate with pheromones in their urine and they actually tell each other where to go by scent. So if you leave the scent in your attic, this will attract new rodents to gnaw their way into your Nassau County, Long Island home. During our inspection of your residence, if we determine that your attic has been inhabited by wildlife and is soiled with animal waste, such as urine, feces, hair, nesting materials, fleas, or other parasites, we will recommend attic cleanup services and or flea / mite extermination as additional services.
Raccoons and other vermin leave their fecal droppings and the potential for disease in your home.
