Dead Animal Removal and Cleanup for Metro West, Orlando, FL Homes and Businesses

Dead animal cleanup in attics and crawl spaces often means removing insulation, treating joists and subfloors, and sealing contaminated waste. Soaked materials hold odor even after the animal is removed.

The work often covers:

  • Cleaning and treating of air paths and vents where odor has spread
  • Cleanup of fluids and stains left on floors, walls, insulation and subfloors
  • Carcass removal from walls, attics, crawl spaces, vents, chimneys and ductwork
  • Disinfection of surfaces and framing with EPA-registered products used by label directions

What Metro West Property Owners Ask About a Dead Animal in the House

What should I do first if I smell something dead?

Open windows where it is safe, keep children and pets away, and try to note where the smell is strongest. Do not tear open walls. Call Metro West Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.

Is it safe to stay home during dead animal cleanup?

For work in an attic or crawl space, many people stay in the home while the crew works with containment. For heavy odor or large animals, you may prefer to be away. The team will say what makes sense for your situation.

What should I do with a dead animal I can see?

Do not touch it bare-handed. Wear heavy gloves, place it in a heavy bag, seal it and dispose of it according to local rules. Wash your hands well afterward. If it is large or you are unsure, call for help.

What rules apply to dead animal removal in Florida?

Rules for removing and disposing of dead animals vary by city and county, and animal services handle public property in many places. Worker safety follows OSHA rules for contaminated materials. Ask your city or county what applies where you are.

Can I remove a dead animal myself?

Sometimes. A small animal in plain sight can be bagged with gloves and a heavy bag, sealed and disposed of properly. Hidden, large or long-dead animals are a different job, because fluids soak into materials and germs can spread.

What diseases can a dead animal carry?

Dead animals can carry bacteria, parasites and viruses that pass to people and pets through touch or contaminated surfaces. Wild animals may also carry illnesses such as rabies. Avoid contact and let a cleanup team handle removal.
