Animal Hoarding in South Georgia

​

Did you know that as many as 250,000 animals are likely living in hoarding conditions at any given moment? Some people will keep large numbers of cats, dogs, and other animals on their property, often in inadequate living conditions.

 

Unfortunately, hoarded animals are often improperly cared for. Urine, feces, fur, and other contaminants can pile up, affecting the health of humans and animals alike. This causes hazardous toxins to exist in the air and in the vents, carpet, and flooring.

 

Cats are the most likely animals to be hoarded. This is especially problematic because cat urine is extremely difficult to clean up and neutralize. Cat urine is pernicious, often sinking deep into carpet and other surfaces.

 

Regardless, Steri-Clean has over two decades of experience in cleaning up messes left behind by animals and vermin. We can and will get the job done. Please visit our animal cleanup page to learn more.
