Disinfectants can inactivate the virus, which is why droppings are soaked before they are wiped up. The method matters as much as the product. Follow label directions and never mix cleaners.
Hantavirus is a virus carried by some wild rodents. It is uncommon, but it can cause serious lung illness. People are mainly exposed by breathing in dust from droppings, urine or nests.
The odor comes from urine in insulation, wood and fabric, so it must be removed or treated at the source. Crews take out soaked insulation and treat surfaces. Air fresheners only cover the smell.
Hard surfaces and items in sealed plastic containers can usually be cleaned and kept. Insulation, cardboard and fabric soiled with droppings or urine are generally discarded. The crew sorts items with you before anything is thrown out.
It depends on the lease and local law. Tenants should tell the landlord or manager right away. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say who is responsible.
Sometimes, but not always. Many homeowners policies exclude damage from pests that builds up over time, though wording differs. Call your insurer before work starts, take photos, keep receipts and ask what paperwork is needed.
