ANIMAL DAMAGE CLEAN UP FOR YOUR HOME

RESTORING YOUR HOME AND YOUR PEACE OF MIND

If your home has been damaged by animal infestation or animal contamination, the work required to clean and restore the affected area is difficult and often dangerous due to the biohazards left behind. Only a trained technician can ensure safe and proper clean up from animal damage, infestation and contamination.

Raccoons, skunks, vermin, rodents and bats often carry very dangerous viruses and bacteria, which can be present in their feces and urine. The scents and droppings that remain after the animals are gone can also attract and cause subsequent infestations.

ServiceMaster of the Valley takes pride in restoring peace of mind by providing professional animal damage and animal contamination cleanup services. We work directly and collaboratively with our customers to provide outstanding results. Day or night, we are available to take your call 24/7, every day of the year.

Our specialists isolate the affected area to prevent further damage to your home, remove unsalvageable items and clean, disinfect and thoroughly decontaminate all surrounding surfaces.

Tips for reducing the risk of unwanted animal, vermin and rodent infestation in your home.

Keep food in thick plastic or metal containers with tight lids.
Clean up spilled food right away and wash dishes and cooking utensils soon after use.
Keep outside cooking areas and grills clean.
Always put pet food away after use and do not leave pet-food or water bowls out overnight.
Keep bird feeders away from the property and utilize squirrel guards to limit access to the feeder by squirrels and other rodents.
Use thick plastic or metal garbage containers with a tight lid.
Keep compost bins as far away from the property as possible (30 metres or more is best).
