Animal Hoarding Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Tupper Lake, NY
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.

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 health risks come from animal waste in a home?
Urine and feces release ammonia, which irritates the eyes and lungs. Waste can carry bacteria and parasites, and some diseases pass between animals and people. Fleas, ticks, rodents, dust and mold add to the problem. Anyone who feels unwell after time in the home should see a doctor.
Does the resident need to be present?
Not always. If access can be arranged, the caller does not need to be on site. When the resident wants to be there, the crew welcomes it and works at a pace that suits them.
