Mouse Droppings and Hantavirus Questions Answered in Mission

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.

Can cleanup stop mice and rats from coming back?

No. Cleanup removes contamination but does not block entry points. A pest professional can seal gaps and set traps. Removing droppings and nests does help, since odor trails can draw new rodents in.

Why is insulation removed after mice or rats?

Insulation soaks up droppings, urine and odor and cannot be reliably cleaned. Removing it takes away both the contamination and the smell. Replacement insulation is usually a separate job.

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 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 Mission Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.

Does bleach or disinfectant kill hantavirus?

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.
