Only about 25% of homes in Douglas County were built before 1980, but newer homes have attics, garages and utility gaps that rodents still reach. With roughly 54 inches of annual rainfall in Fairplay, damp weather sends rodents indoors, and moisture makes droppings and nesting material smell worse.

- Safe wet-clean removal of mouse and rat droppings from floors, shelves and surfaces
- Cleanup of droppings in kitchens, pantries, cabinets and food storage areas

Common Questions About Rodent Infestation Cleanup in Fairplay, GA
How much does rodent droppings cleanup cost?
It depends on the size of the area, how much insulation is soiled and how hard the space is to reach. A small shed costs less than a full attic. The team sets the price after seeing the space.
How do I get rid of the smell of rat urine?
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.
What is hantavirus?
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.
Do cabins and barns need special cleanup?
Buildings that sit closed for long periods can hold heavy rodent buildup, including nests and droppings that are dry and dusty. Crews ventilate first, wet down and use protective gear, since these are the settings tied to hantavirus exposure.
Who pays for rodent cleanup in a rental, the landlord or the tenant?
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.
What should I do first if I find droppings?
Do not sweep, vacuum or blow them. Keep children and pets away, ventilate the space, and decide whether it is a small spot or a larger job. Call Fairplay Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
