I wanted to recognize the excellent service we received from Leo. He was helpful, responsive and professional throughout the entire process. Our situation required multiple visits and he never hesitated to return until everything was fully resolved. What impressed us most was that he encouraged us to keep him updated if anything changed, showing he genuinely cared about making sure the issue stayed resolved rather than simply finishing the job. Outstanding customer service like this is rare, and we truly appreciated his dedication, persistence and professionalism. We were referred to another company, but we never received a call back. It's now been three weeks, despite the request being for an emergency. Highly recommend All City Animal Trapping!

After calling so many places who sent me either straight to voicemail or didn't respond, All City Animal Trapping came out the same day! We needed a dead animal removed from our home and no one deemed it as an emergency except for All City. Even though the city eventually sent someone to pick up the dead animal, Anthony Nepomuceno still came and checked out the property for any other rodents or other animals. They are the best! Would definitely recommend

As a property manager, I rely on vendors who are responsive, reliable, and able to solve problems quickly. We were in the middle of a sewer line replacement on a multifamily property when a family of skunks decided to move into one of the open sewer lines. Since construction had to continue, I needed help fast. I found All City Animal Trapping on Yelp, and they responded immediately. They came out right away, set traps, and returned to pick them up once our project was complete. Their communication was excellent, the pricing was fair, and they helped us avoid what could have been a major delay. Thanks to their quick response and professionalism, we were able to keep our project moving without interruption. I highly recommend All City Animal Trapping to anyone in need of wildlife removal services. They have definitely earned a spot on our vendor list, and I will absolutely be using them again for our properties in the future.

I called because I had a raccoon in my attic. Leo from All City Animal Trapping came out on the day I called. Leo sprayed attic. My unwanted raccoon family (mother and 3 babies) left a few days after another spraying. My attic is now raccoon free. Great service. Tech Leo was professional and attentive to my questions and kept calling to make sure my "guests" were totally gone. I highly recommend All City Animal Trapping and Trapper Leo!

Had a horrific stench in our backyard and suspected a dead rodent. All City Animal Trapping came out, pinpointed the smell under the deck, opened it up, found the culprit (RIP old possum), cleaned the mess, and reattached the planks. Really appreciate the quick response and professional job. This was my second time using them and they were great both times.

Understanding the Risks

As the owner of All City Animal Trapping, I’ve seen firsthand the significant damage that dead animals can cause to homes and properties. While it’s a situation no one wants to deal with, understanding the potential damage can help you take swift action. Here’s what you need to know about the risks and damage associated with dead animals in your home or property:

1. Health Risks

Disease Transmission

Dead animals can carry and transmit various diseases and parasites, posing serious health risks to humans and pets:

  • Bacterial Infections: Decomposing animals can harbor bacteria such as Salmonella and E. coli, which can contaminate your home and cause serious illnesses.
  • Viruses: Dead animals can be carriers of viruses such as rabies, which pose significant health threats.
  • Parasites: Fleas, ticks, mites, and maggots are commonly attracted to dead animals and can infest your home, spreading diseases and causing additional health concerns.
 

2. Structural Damage

Decomposition Effects

The decomposition process can cause significant structural damage to your home:

  • Wood Rot: Fluids from decomposing animals can seep into wood, causing it to rot and weaken structural components.
  • Drywall Damage: Fluids and gasses released during decomposition can damage drywall, leading to staining, warping, and potential mold growth.
  • Insulation Contamination: Dead animals in attics or walls can contaminate insulation with fluids and odors, reducing its effectiveness and requiring costly replacement.
 

3. Odor Problems

Persistent and Unpleasant Smells

One of the most noticeable and distressing issues with dead animals is the foul odor they produce:

  • Odor Penetration: The smell of decomposition can penetrate walls, floors, and furniture, making it difficult to eliminate without professional help.
  • Air Quality: The odor can significantly reduce indoor air quality, making your living environment unpleasant and potentially harmful to your health.
 

4. Attraction of Other Pests

Secondary Infestations

Dead animals can attract other pests, leading to secondary infestations:

  • Insects: Flies, beetles, and other insects are drawn to decomposing animals, and their presence can lead to further contamination and spread of disease.
  • Rodents: The odor and availability of food can attract rodents, which can cause additional damage and health risks.
 

5. Water Damage

Contamination and Leakage

If a dead animal is located near or in a water source, it can lead to water damage:

  • Contaminated Water: Dead animals can contaminate water sources such as wells, tanks, and plumbing systems, making the water unsafe for use.
  • Leakage: Fluids from decomposing animals can cause water damage to walls, ceilings, and floors, leading to staining, warping, and mold growth.
 

6. Property Value

Decreased Property Value

The presence of dead animals and the associated damage can significantly decrease your property value:

  • Structural Integrity: Damage to structural components can reduce the overall value and safety of your home.
  • Aesthetic Appeal: Odors, stains, and infestations can make your property less appealing to potential buyers or renters.
