Rodent infestations leave behind droppings, urine, and nesting materials that pose serious health risks requiring professional cleanup. Relief Remediation provides comprehensive rodent droppings cleanup in Marietta, GA with certified technicians who safely remove contamination, sanitize affected areas, and restore properties to safe, healthy conditions.
Our specialists serve homes and businesses throughout Marietta including East Cobb, Historic Marietta Square, Windsor Oaks, and Indian Hills. We understand that rodent contamination creates urgent health concerns and unpleasant conditions requiring immediate professional attention.
Rodent droppings, urine, and nesting materials carry dangerous pathogens and parasites affecting human health.
Diseases Transmitted by Rodents: Hantavirus causes severe respiratory illness through inhalation of contaminated dust. Salmonella leads to food poisoning and gastrointestinal illness. Leptospirosis affects kidneys and liver through contact with rodent urine. Lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) causes neurological problems. Rat-bite fever results from bites or contact with contaminated materials. Plague, while rare, still occurs through flea bites from infected rodents.
Allergens and Respiratory Issues: Rodent dander, urine proteins, and fecal matter trigger allergic reactions and asthma attacks. Dried droppings become airborne when disturbed, creating respiratory hazards. Contaminated insulation and HVAC systems spread allergens throughout properties.
Parasites: Rodents carry fleas, mites, and ticks that infest properties and transmit additional diseases. These parasites remain in contaminated areas even after rodents are removed.
Professional cleanup eliminates these serious health risks protecting occupants from disease transmission and allergic reactions.
We conduct thorough inspection identifying all contaminated areas, determining infestation extent and duration, locating entry points and nesting sites, evaluating structural damage, and assessing affected materials requiring removal or treatment.
Our technicians wear appropriate personal protective equipment including respirators with HEPA filtration preventing inhalation of contaminated particles, protective suits and gloves, and eye protection during all cleanup activities.
We establish proper ventilation in enclosed spaces while containing contaminated areas preventing spread to unaffected spaces during cleanup.
Heavily contaminated porous materials must be removed. Insulation saturated with urine and droppings cannot be adequately cleaned and requires complete replacement. Contaminated drywall, ceiling tiles, and cardboard materials absorb rodent waste and must be removed. Nesting materials including shredded paper, fabric, and insulation get removed and properly disposed of. Any stored items heavily contaminated beyond cleaning require removal.
We carefully remove rodent droppings, dead rodents, and contaminated debris using HEPA vacuuming to prevent airborne particles and proper collection techniques minimizing dust creation. Materials are sealed in heavy-duty bags and disposed of following health department regulations.
All affected surfaces receive intensive cleaning using EPA-registered disinfectants proven effective against rodent-borne pathogens. Hospital-grade antimicrobial treatments eliminate bacteria and viruses. Multiple cleaning passes ensure complete decontamination. Wood, concrete, and structural materials receive appropriate treatment for each surface type.
Rodent urine creates persistent ammonia odors requiring professional treatment. We use enzymatic cleaners breaking down organic compounds, antimicrobial fogging penetrating porous materials, air scrubbers with odor filtration, and sealing treatments when needed. Our odor removal services specialize in eliminating severe rodent odors.
After contaminated insulation removal, we install new insulation meeting current energy efficiency standards, ensuring proper vapor barriers and ventilation, and verifying no remaining contamination.
We identify how rodents entered properties including foundation cracks and gaps, utility line penetrations, roof and soffit openings, door and window gaps, and HVAC system access points. We provide recommendations for exclusion work preventing future infestations.
We verify complete contamination removal ensuring all droppings and materials are removed, odors are eliminated, and properties are safe for occupancy.
Rodents contaminate specific areas based on their behavior patterns.
Attics: Roof rats and squirrels commonly nest in attics, leaving extensive droppings and urine contaminating insulation, stored items, and structural materials. Our attic mold removal expertise extends to rodent contamination cleanup in these spaces.
Crawl Spaces: Mice and rats use crawl spaces for nesting and travel, contaminating insulation, vapor barriers, and structural components. Our crawl space mold remediation services include rodent contamination assessment and cleanup.
Basements: Rodents enter basements through foundation cracks and utility penetrations, contaminating stored items, mechanical equipment, and living spaces.
Wall Cavities: Mice travel inside walls leaving droppings and urine that create odors and health hazards in hidden locations.
Garages and Outbuildings: Detached structures provide shelter for rodents who contaminate stored items, vehicles, and equipment.
Commercial Spaces: Warehouses, restaurants, retail stores, and office buildings face rodent problems requiring professional cleanup protecting employees and customers.
Mouse Droppings: Small dark pellets found along walls, in cabinets, and throughout travel paths. House mice are the most common indoor rodents in Marietta homes.
Rat Droppings: Larger capsule-shaped droppings indicating roof rats or Norway rats. Rat contamination is typically more extensive than mice due to larger waste volume.
Squirrel Contamination: Attic-dwelling squirrels create significant contamination with droppings, urine, and nesting materials often mixed with stored items.
Bat Guano: While bats aren’t rodents, we handle bat guano cleanup requiring similar safety protocols due to histoplasmosis risks.
Each rodent type creates specific contamination patterns requiring appropriate cleanup approaches.
Rodent droppings cleanup should never be attempted without proper training and equipment.
Health Protection: Professional respiratory protection prevents hantavirus and other airborne pathogen exposure that DIY attempts risk. Proper PPE protects against direct contact with contaminated materials.
Complete Decontamination: EPA-registered disinfectants proven effective against rodent pathogens ensure safety. Multiple cleaning passes eliminate contamination that surface cleaning misses.
Proper Disposal: Contaminated materials require disposal following health department regulations. Improper disposal creates public health hazards and potential legal issues.
Hidden Contamination: Professional inspection locates contamination in wall cavities, insulation, and other hidden areas DIY efforts miss.
Odor Elimination: Professional techniques remove persistent urine odors that household products cannot eliminate.
Prevention Guidance: We identify entry points and provide exclusion recommendations preventing future infestations and contamination.

Not recommended. Rodent droppings carry hantavirus and other serious pathogens that become airborne when disturbed. Professional cleanup with proper respiratory protection, techniques preventing airborne contamination, and EPA-registered disinfectants ensures safety.
Rodent droppings transmit hantavirus causing severe respiratory illness, salmonella causing gastrointestinal disease, leptospirosis affecting organs, LCMV causing neurological problems, and various other bacterial and viral infections. Professional cleanup eliminates these risks.
Cost depends on contamination extent, affected area size, insulation replacement needs, and property accessibility. Small attic cleanup may cost a few thousand dollars. Extensive contamination throughout properties may cost significantly more. We provide detailed estimates after assessment.
Timeline varies based on contamination extent. Small localized cleanup may require 1-2 days. Extensive contamination requiring insulation replacement throughout attics or crawl spaces may take 3-5 days for complete cleanup and restoration.
Yes if heavily contaminated. Insulation saturated with urine and droppings cannot be adequately cleaned and poses ongoing health risks. Replacement eliminates contamination and restores energy efficiency.
Yes. Airborne particles from disturbed droppings cause respiratory illness. Direct contact transmits bacteria and viruses. Ongoing exposure to contaminated areas causes chronic health problems especially in children and those with compromised immunity.
Signs include visible droppings along walls and in cabinets, urine odors especially in enclosed spaces, nesting materials in insulation or stored items, gnaw marks on wood and wires, scratching sounds in walls or ceilings, and grease marks along rodent travel paths.
Cleanup doesn’t prevent reinfestation. Sealing entry points and ongoing pest control monitoring are essential after cleanup preventing rodents from returning and creating new contamination.
We specialize in cleanup and decontamination after pest control eliminates active infestations. We coordinate with pest control companies and provide entry point identification, but extermination should be completed before cleanup begins.
Yes. Undisclosed rodent problems discovered during inspections affect property values and may prevent sales. Professional cleanup and documentation protect property values and support successful transactions.
