About 11% of homes in Springfield are vacant, and a property that sat empty after animals were removed can hold waste and odor for a long time. Summer highs in Springfield are milder, around 84 degrees in July, but a shut-up house with animal waste still builds ammonia and attracts flies and fleas.
The work often covers:
- Containment of the affected area so contamination does not spread to clean rooms
- Odor treatment at the source, including subfloors, walls and furniture
- Removal of animal urine, feces, bedding and soiled debris from floors, rooms and crates
- 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

Questions Owners and Landlords in Springfield, OH Ask About Animal Waste Cleanup
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.
Will repairs be needed after cleanup?
Sometimes. Flooring, drywall, baseboards and paint may need replacing once soaked and chewed materials are removed. The team notes what it finds so a builder can plan the repairs.
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.
Can I clean up after animal hoarding myself?
Only if the area is small, the surface is hard and the air is easy to breathe, and then with gloves, a mask and open windows. Widespread waste, soaked floors, strong odor or pests call for a crew.
What is the ammonia smell in the house?
It comes from animal urine breaking down. Ammonia irritates the eyes, throat and lungs, and it soaks into floors and walls. Opening windows helps only briefly, and the smell returns until the source is removed.
How much does animal hoarding cleanup cost?
It varies widely. The size of the home, the amount of waste, soaked flooring, odor depth and pests all change the price. The cleanup team gives a real price after seeing the home. Be careful with any quote given sight unseen.
