Summer highs in Woodmoor are milder, around 82 degrees in July, but a shut-up house with animal waste still builds ammonia and attracts flies and fleas. Only about 4% of homes in El Paso County are vacant, so most animal hoarding cleanups here involve a home that someone owns or rents and wants to restore.
A typical animal hoarding cleanup job includes:
- Odor treatment at the source, including subfloors, walls and furniture
- Safe bagging and disposal of waste, handled as regulated waste when needed
- Control of ammonia and dust with air movement and respiratory protection for the crew
- Containment of the affected area so contamination does not spread to clean rooms
- Clearing of food, bowls, crates, cages and supplies left in the home

Animal Hoarding Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Woodmoor, CO
Does insurance cover animal hoarding cleanup?
Usually not. Policies often exclude cleaning caused by long-term conditions, though some cover sudden events such as a burst pipe. Read the policy or ask the agent, take photos and keep every receipt.
What happens to deceased animals found in the home?
They are handled with care and disposed of properly, as local rules require. The cleanup team can explain how this is done and which agency to contact if needed.
What is animal hoarding cleanup?
It is the cleaning of a home after too many animals were kept in it to be cared for well. Crews in protective gear remove waste and soiled materials, scrub, disinfect and treat odor. The animals are handled first by an agency such as animal control or a rescue group.
How long does animal hoarding cleanup take?
A single room is often finished in a day, while a full house can take several days. Size, waste, soaked materials and odor change the timeline. Pest control and repairs come after the cleaning.
Is extreme cleaning the same as animal hoarding cleanup?
Not exactly. Extreme cleaning is a broad term for homes in very poor condition, while animal hoarding cleanup targets animal waste, odor and damage. The two can overlap, and a team can combine them in one plan.
Do the animals have to be gone before cleanup starts?
Yes. Cleanup does not begin while animals are still in the home. Animal control, a humane society or a rescue group should clear the property first, and the cleanup team can then plan its work.
