We Fix What the Rodents Left Behind

We take care of the damaged insulation, the mess and the openings they came in through, and we put new insulation in when the job calls for it. We handle the cleanup and the insulation. Pest control is done by a licensed pest company.

Signs Rodents Have Been in the Insulation

  • Droppings or nests in the insulation
  • A bad smell from the crawl space or attic
  • Insulation pulled down, tunneled through or torn up
  • Cold floors where the insulation has been pulled away

Insulation that has been nested in, soaked or torn up does not do its job any more. It has to come out before new insulation goes in.

What the Cleanup Includes

  1. We Look, Then You Get a Bid

    We come out, see where they have been and what is damaged, and tell you what we would do and what it will cost.

  2. Damaged Insulation and the Mess Come Out

    We remove the damaged insulation and any dead rodents from the crawl space or attic, and clean up the space.

  3. Deodorizer If It Smells

    We spray a deodorizer when the space is smelly.

  4. New Vapor Barrier in Crawl Spaces

    In a crawl space we lay new Visqueen, the plastic ground cover, so the crawl space ground is clean.

  5. Vents and Entry Points Sealed

    We seal the crawl space vents and the entry points rodents use.

  6. New Insulation Goes In

    Re-insulating is a common part of the job. In a crawl space that is new underfloor insulation, twined so it stays up. In an attic it is blown-in fiberglass. We insulate to current code.

  7. Everything Is Hauled Away

    We bag, haul and dispose of all the debris ourselves.
