Many homes in Kansas City, about 63%, were built before 1980. Older insulation and wood framing soak up droppings and urine and hold odor. Most housing in Kansas City is occupied, with a vacancy rate of about 10%, but sheds, garages and attics still go unvisited for months and can hold rodent buildup.
A typical rodent droppings & hantavirus cleanup job includes:
- Cleanup of droppings in kitchens, pantries, cabinets and food storage areas
- Cleanup of droppings in ductwork, vents and around heating and cooling equipment
- Sorting, cleaning and sanitizing of stored items and belongings that can be saved

What Lakeview Terrace Property Owners Ask About Rat and Mouse Droppings
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 Lakeview Terrace Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
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.
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 can be saved after a rodent infestation?
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.
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.
Is it safe to stay in the house during rodent cleanup?
For small areas, usually yes, if the work zone is sealed off. For attics or heavy contamination, many owners prefer to stay away while the crew works. The team will explain what is best for your situation.
