Only about 9% of homes in Genesee County are vacant, so most animal hoarding cleanups here involve a home that someone owns or rents and wants to restore. Summer highs in Lake Fenton are milder, around 80 degrees in July, but a shut-up house with animal waste still builds ammonia and attracts flies and fleas.
A typical animal hoarding cleanup job includes:
- Control of ammonia and dust with air movement and respiratory protection for the crew
- Respectful handling of the remains of deceased animals when they are found, with proper disposal
- Cleanup of fleas, flies, droppings and other pest debris left behind

Soaked carpet, padding and drywall are removed so urine does not stay in the structure. Hard surfaces are scrubbed.

Common Questions About Animal Hoarding Clean Up in Lake Fenton, MI
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.
Who removes the animals, and who cleans afterward?
Animal control, a humane society or a rescue group usually cares for the animals. A cleanup team takes care of the home afterward. Ask the agency when the home is clear, then call a team to plan the work.
Will personal belongings and papers be saved?
Yes where they can be. The crew sets aside papers, photos, medicine and valuables that can be cleaned, and the owner can name items that must be kept. Items too soiled to clean safely are discarded.
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.
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.
What does the owner need to do before calling?
Confirm that the animals are out, take photos if possible and note any deadline from a landlord, a city office or a sale. If you are the owner or caller, you do not need every detail before calling.
