Rodent Viruses & Heavy Content Clean-up

TACT Las Vegas

When dealing with a heavy content cleanup, it's not just clutter we’re removing—it's often what’s hiding underneath that poses the real danger. One of the most serious hazards we face during these cleanups is rodent infestations, and the diseases they leave behind.

At TACT Las Vegas, we are specially trained and equipped to handle biohazards such as rodent droppings, urine, nesting materials, and contaminated debris—ensuring your home or property is restored safely and thoroughly.

⚠️ The Hidden Danger: Rodent-Borne Viruses

R0dents are more than just an unsettling sight. They carry harmful pathogens that can remain airborne or on surfaces long after the rodents are gone. During cleanups, we commonly encounter:

? Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS)

• Transmitted through inhalation of dust contaminated with rodent droppings or urine.

• Can cause severe respiratory distress and, in some cases, death.

? Leptospirosis

• Spread via contact with water or soil contaminated with infected urine.

• Causes fever, liver damage, kidney failure, or meningitis.

? Salmonella and Other Bacterial Infections

• Found in rodent feces or contaminated food sources.

• Can lead to gastrointestinal illness.

?️ How TACT Las Vegas Handles the Threat

We follow a strict biohazard remediation protocol to protect both our team and our clients:

1. Assessment & Hazard Identification – We inspect and identify high-risk areas with evidence of nesting, burrows, or droppings.

2. Full PPE & Containment – Our technicians wear full protective gear, and we contain contaminated zones to prevent cross-spread.

3. HEPA Filtration Systems – We use negative air machines to control airborne particles, especially in enclosed spaces.

4. Safe Removal of Contaminated Items – Items compromised by urine, feces, or disease risk are properly bagged and disposed of per OSHA and EPA guidelines.

5. Decontamination & Disinfection – We apply hospital-grade disinfectants, enzyme cleaners, and odor neutralizers to eliminate all pathogens.

? What Should You Do Before Calling TACT?

Here’s what to do instead:

✅ Do not disturb rodent droppings or nests
✅ Avoid sweeping or vacuuming contaminated areas
✅ Seal off the affected space if possible
✅ Call TACT Las Vegas for a professional assessment

We’re equipped to handle both the cleanup and the safety protocols, ensuring the job is done correctly and with compassion.
