Pest control removes rodents and seals entry points. Rodent cleanup removes droppings, urine, nests and contaminated materials, and disinfects the area. Many properties need both, one after the other.
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.
Food, dishes and shelves that rodents touched are sorted. Items that cannot be sanitized are discarded, and hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected. Anything in sealed containers can usually be saved.
