What Apollo Property Owners Ask About Rat and Mouse Droppings
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 Apollo Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
Should I sweep or vacuum rodent droppings?
No. Dry sweeping or standard vacuuming stirs up dust and can spread germs. Air out the space, wet the droppings with disinfectant, wipe them up with paper towels and seal everything in a bag.
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.
Who pays for rodent cleanup in a rental, the landlord or the tenant?
It depends on the lease and local law. Tenants should tell the landlord or manager right away. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say who is responsible.
Can rodent droppings get into my air ducts?
Yes. Mice and rats can enter ductwork and leave droppings there, and the heating and cooling system can then move dust and odor through the house. Cleanup may include treating vents and duct openings.
