How Animal Hoarding Cleanup Works in Central Alameda, Los Angeles, CA

1. Start with a conversation

The team asks what happened, what the owner wants to keep and what deadline applies. Everyone is treated with respect.

2. Survey the damage

Floors, subfloors, walls and furniture are checked for soaked or contaminated materials. Pests and mold, if present, are noted.

3. Take out the source of odor

Soaked carpet, padding and drywall are removed so urine does not stay in the structure. Hard surfaces are scrubbed.

4. Sanitize and check

Approved disinfectants are applied and left wet for the time on the label. The crew checks the air and surfaces in each room before leaving.
