Summer highs in Sierra View are milder, around 78 degrees in July, but a shut-up house with animal waste still builds ammonia and attracts flies and fleas. About 23% of homes in Monroe County are vacant, and a property that sat empty after animals were removed can hold waste and odor for a long time.
What animal hoarding cleanup covers:
- Plain-language notes on damage found, useful for landlords, buyers and insurers
- Sorting out personal papers, photos and valuables for the owner or family
- Safe bagging and disposal of waste, handled as regulated waste when needed
- Cleanup of fleas, flies, droppings and other pest debris left behind

Animal Hoarding Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Sierra View, PA
Does the resident need to be present?
Not always. If access can be arranged, the caller does not need to be on site. When the resident wants to be there, the crew welcomes it and works at a pace that suits them.
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.
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 should I treat the person who kept the animals?
With kindness and without blame. Many people who kept too many animals loved them and wanted to help. Feelings run high after animals are removed, and support from a doctor or counselor can help.
Will personal belongings and papers be saved?
Yes where they can be. The crew sets aside papers, photos, medicine and valuables that can be cleaned, and the owner can name items that must be kept. Items too soiled to clean safely are discarded.
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.
