What Animal Hoarder Cleanup Means for a Berkley, CO Property
After animals are removed by animal control or a rescue group, the home still holds urine, feces and damage. Animal waste cleanup restores it to a safe, sanitary state.

- Removal of animal urine, feces, bedding and soiled debris from floors, rooms and crates
- Cleaning of doors, baseboards and walls stained or damaged by chewing and scratching

Questions Owners and Landlords in Berkley, CO Ask About Animal Waste Cleanup
Is extreme cleaning the same as animal hoarding cleanup?
Not exactly. Extreme cleaning is a broad term for homes in very poor condition, while animal hoarding cleanup targets animal waste, odor and damage. The two can overlap, and a team can combine them in one plan.
Who pays for animal hoarding cleanup?
Often the owner, resident or family pays. For a rental, the lease and local law decide between landlord and tenant. Animal control or a rescue group takes care of the animals and usually does not pay for cleaning the home. Some communities offer help for older adults or people with disabilities.
What does the owner need to do before calling?
Confirm that the animals are out, take photos if possible and note any deadline from a landlord, a city office or a sale. If you are the owner or caller, you do not need every detail before calling.
Is animal hoarding cleanup different from pet odor cleaning?
Yes. Pet odor cleaning is meant for a few accidents on a surface. Animal hoarding cleanup deals with widespread waste, soaked materials, ammonia, pests and structural odor, and it needs protective gear and removal work.
What is the ammonia smell in the house?
It comes from animal urine breaking down. Ammonia irritates the eyes, throat and lungs, and it soaks into floors and walls. Opening windows helps only briefly, and the smell returns until the source is removed.
Who removes the animals, and who cleans afterward?
Animal control, a humane society or a rescue group usually cares for the animals. A cleanup team takes care of the home afterward. Ask the agency when the home is clear, then call a team to plan the work.
