Cleaning out a family home can be an emotional and overwhelming experience. Discovering evidence of rodents or wildlife often adds another layer of stress, especially when contamination has gone unnoticed for months or even years.
At Selkirk Pest Control, we help homeowners, families, executors, and real estate professionals assess contamination, remove affected materials, and prepare homes for their next chapter.
Estate clean-outs are often appropriate when a home has been vacant or experienced prolonged rodent or wildlife activity.
Common situations include:
Every property is different, which is why we begin with a thorough Home Pest Assessment to understand the extent of the work required.
We understand that every estate is unique. Depending on the property's condition, our services may include:
Our goal is to leave families with a cleaner property and a clear understanding of the work that was completed.
Contamination is often more extensive than it first appears.
Rodent droppings, nesting materials, and urine contamination may be hidden beneath attic insulation, inside crawl spaces, wall cavities, or storage areas.
A professional assessment helps determine where cleanup is needed while reducing the chance that contaminated areas are overlooked.
If you're preparing an estate for sale, helping a family member, or dealing with rodent or wildlife contamination, we're here to help.
A Home Pest Assessment allows us to understand the property's condition, explain your options, and develop a practical cleanup plan tailored to the home.
Some of the most significant contamination we encounter is in homes that appeared clean during an initial walk-through. Rodent activity often remains hidden beneath insulation, behind stored belongings, or inside crawl spaces until a careful assessment is completed.
