With roughly 47 inches of annual rainfall in Morrisania, damp weather sends rodents indoors, and moisture makes droppings and nesting material smell worse.

The work often covers:
- Cleanup of droppings in kitchens, pantries, cabinets and food storage areas
- Sorting, cleaning and sanitizing of stored items and belongings that can be saved
- Documentation of the work for landlords, buyers, inspectors and insurers
- Safe wet-clean removal of mouse and rat droppings from floors, shelves and surfaces
- Cleanup of droppings in ductwork, vents and around heating and cooling equipment

Rodent Droppings Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Morrisania, New York, NY
What is the difference between pest control and rodent cleanup?
Pest control removes rodents and seals entry points. Rodent cleanup removes droppings, urine, nests and contaminated materials, and disinfects the area. Many properties need both, one after the other.
What should I do first if I find droppings?
Do not sweep, vacuum or blow them. Keep children and pets away, ventilate the space, and decide whether it is a small spot or a larger job. Call Morrisania Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
How do I get rid of the smell of rat urine?
The odor comes from urine in insulation, wood and fabric, so it must be removed or treated at the source. Crews take out soaked insulation and treat surfaces. Air fresheners only cover the smell.
Why is insulation removed after mice or rats?
Insulation soaks up droppings, urine and odor and cannot be reliably cleaned. Removing it takes away both the contamination and the smell. Replacement insulation is usually a separate job.
Do cabins and barns need special cleanup?
Buildings that sit closed for long periods can hold heavy rodent buildup, including nests and droppings that are dry and dusty. Crews ventilate first, wet down and use protective gear, since these are the settings tied to hantavirus exposure.
How do I know if mice have been in my attic?
Common signs are small pellet droppings, shredded nesting material, grease marks along beams, gnaw marks and a musky smell. Scratching sounds at night can also point to rodents. A cleanup team can judge how much needs to be removed.
