Rodent cleanup
Who cleans up after a rodent infestation? Local Trauma Clean does. Once rodents are eradicated they leave behind a biohazard, and the items and space need to be decontaminated by a licensed, experienced biohazard company. As part of Local Pest Control, we can also handle the infestation itself. Call 778-828-6094.
Rats and mice are a constant problem in the Greater Vancouver area due to our mild climate. Once you've managed to eradicate them from a space, they leave behind a biohazard. Items and the space they were in need to be decontaminated properly by a licensed and experienced biohazard cleanup company like Local Trauma Clean. Mice and rats can carry diseases, and proximity to disease-ridden rodents can result in those diseases being contracted by humans.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, hantavirus, leptospirosis, lymphocytic choriomeningitis, and salmonellosis are just some of the diseases that domestic mice and deer mice are capable of transmitting to humans. In addition to these diseases, mice can contaminate living-area surfaces and food products through feces, urine, or the simple act of coming into contact with them. Although rats are actually very clean animals, they also have the ability to spread diseases: toxoplasmosis, trichinosis, and typhus are some of the diseases rats can transfer to human beings.
Through our highly experienced pest control background, we've trained a team of experts to decontaminate rodent-infested spaces and make them safe for human occupancy again. Because Local Trauma Clean and Local Pest Control are the same company, one call can cover both the extermination and the decontamination, handled by licensed pest technicians and certified biohazard cleaners on one coordinated job. Don't risk your health, call Local Trauma Clean today.
Rodent cleanup questions, answered
What are the health risks of rodent droppings?
Mice and rats can transmit disease. According to the CDC, house mice and deer mice can transmit hantavirus, leptospirosis, lymphocytic choriomeningitis, and salmonellosis, among others, and they contaminate surfaces and food through feces, urine, and contact. Rats can spread toxoplasmosis, trichinosis, and typhus.
What is the difference between cleanup and extermination?
Extermination removes the rodents; cleanup decontaminates the biohazard they leave behind. Because Local Trauma Clean and Local Pest Control are the same company, one call covers both, the extermination and the certified decontamination, on one coordinated job.
Do you handle attics and crawlspaces?
Yes. Rodents nest in attics, crawlspaces, and wall cavities, and those spaces need proper decontamination and sanitization after an infestation, not just surface cleaning.
Why is professional decontamination important?
Once rodents are eradicated they leave behind a biohazard. Items and the space they were in need to be decontaminated by a licensed and experienced biohazard cleanup company so the area is safe for human occupancy again. Don’t risk your health.
