| Cleaning Out The Animal Waste
After the invading animals have all been removed and
the building critter-proofed, there is still one more step.
The animals have left a mess up in the attic. This mess can be
very small or very large depending on how long the animals lived in
the attic and how many there were.
Is attic cleanup always
necessary?
No, but it is recommended for the following
reasons:
1) Animal waste is a biohazzard - leaving
droppings in the attic longterm can have health consequences.
2) Animal waste attracts other animals.
Future animals will scent the attic and try to reach the prior
animals.
3) Leaving droppings in the attic is particularly
unattractive to new home buyers.
4) Some customers continue to smell the waste
inside the home and the odor needs to be dealt with at its source,
not by masking agents in the home.

different animals leave in the attic. |
