Animal Hoarding Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Thunder Mountain, NM
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.
How should I treat the person who kept the animals?
With kindness and without blame. Many people who kept too many animals loved them and wanted to help. Feelings run high after animals are removed, and support from a doctor or counselor can help.
Is it safe to enter a home after animal hoarding?
Not without protection. Ammonia, dust and germs can affect the eyes, lungs and skin. Crews wear protective suits, gloves, boots and respiratory protection, and they set up air control to protect clean areas.
Can a landlord require animal hoarding cleanup?
Often yes. A lease and local housing rules usually let a landlord require a safe, sanitary unit. A tenant rights group or an attorney can explain what applies. A cleanup team can often work toward a deadline.
How much does animal hoarding cleanup cost?
It varies widely. The size of the home, the amount of waste, soaked flooring, odor depth and pests all change the price. The cleanup team gives a real price after seeing the home. Be careful with any quote given sight unseen.
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.
