What Boley Property Owners Ask About a Dead Animal in the House
What should I do first if I smell something dead?
Open windows where it is safe, keep children and pets away, and try to note where the smell is strongest. Do not tear open walls. Call Boley Biohazard Cleanup Help at (877) 812-4220 to talk through the safest next step.
What if a pet died at home?
You do not have to handle it alone. A cleanup team can remove the body with care, clean bedding and floors, and disinfect the area. It is done privately and gently, so the family is spared the hardest part.
What should I do with a dead animal I can see?
Do not touch it bare-handed. Wear heavy gloves, place it in a heavy bag, seal it and dispose of it according to local rules. Wash your hands well afterward. If it is large or you are unsure, call for help.
Will insurance cover dead animal cleanup?
Sometimes, but not always. Many homeowners policies exclude damage from animals or pests, and wording differs. Call your insurer before work starts, take photos and keep receipts, and ask what paperwork it needs.
Can a dead animal in the ductwork spread smell through the house?
Yes. Animals can die inside ducts, and the heating and cooling system then moves the odor through every room. Cleanup includes removing the animal and treating vents and duct openings.
How much does dead animal removal cost?
It depends on where the animal is, its size and how much material must be removed. A pickup in plain sight costs less than a job inside a wall. The team sets the price after seeing the space.
