Great and thorough rodent proofing of my house! A crew of 3 guys spent about 2 1/2 hours at the house. They didnโt hesitate to patch up holes in a tight crawl space between my house and the neighbors. Looking forward to a rodent free existence!
Cleaning an attic involves multiple steps, as itโs very easy to spread contaminants, especially when rodents are present. Hereโs how professionals clean attics safely:
Yes, but proceed with extreme caution.
Vacuuming your attic is essential, but attempting to do it yourself is extremely risky. In fact, inexperienced attempts often lead to costly mistakes. Without the right equipment such as HEPA-filtered vacuums, protective gear and materials, cleaning supplies, and more, you can easily stir up contaminants, rodent droppings, and other allergens that can very quickly become airborne (even if indirectly brushed up against). This can lead to you to contract diseases such as hantavirus, salmonella, etc. that are extremely prevalent in rodent-infested areas. Professionals are keenly aware of this, and take the necessary precautions to prevent any repercussions.
Attic cleaning refers to removing debris, dust, and old insulation while addressing any mold, pest droppings, and other contaminanted materials. This includes sanitizing attics to improve air quality, prevent structural damage, and promote a safe and energy-efficient space.
During the process, professionals use specialized equipment (e.g., HEPA vacuums) and industrial-grade sanitizers to eliminate allergens, bacteria, and rodent-borne diseases. In addition to cleaning, they seal entry points to prevent rodents and other pests from re-entering, and may replace old insulation with new, energy-efficient insulation. Attic cleaning services as a whole ensures a healthier, safer home environment while improving overall energy efficiency.
Yes, old insulation should be removed, especially if damaged by pests, rodents, mold, or moisture. Contaminated insulation can compromise air quality and pose health risks. The key reasons for removing old insulation include:
By replacing degraded materials with modern insulation, you can improve your homeโs energy efficiency.
