Protect Your Home with T.A.C.T. Detroit's Rodent Dropping Cleanup

Discovering rodent droppings in your home or business isn’t just gross — it’s dangerous. Rodents can spread harmful diseases like hantavirus, salmonella, and leptospirosis through their droppings and urine. While it might be tempting to clean it up yourself, disturbing contaminated areas without proper protection can actually make the situation worse. At T.A.C.T. Detroit, we specialize in safe, thorough rodent droppings cleanup to protect your health, restore your space, and give you peace of mind.

The Hidden Dangers of Rodent Droppings

Rodent waste may seem small, but the health risks are huge. As droppings dry out, they can break down into tiny particles that become airborne — and you could breathe them in without even realizing it. This can lead to serious illnesses, especially for children, elderly adults, or anyone with a weakened immune system. Common diseases linked to rodent droppings include:

• Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome: A potentially fatal lung disease.

• Salmonella: Causes severe food poisoning symptoms.

• Leptospirosis: Can lead to kidney or liver damage.

• Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis (LCMV): A viral infection affecting the brain and spinal cord.

Bottom line: If you find droppings, it’s not just a cleaning issue — it’s a health emergency.

Why DIY Cleanup Can Be Dangerous

Many people assume they can just grab a broom or vacuum and clean up rodent droppings themselves. Unfortunately, that approach can put you and your loved ones at even greater risk. Here's why:

• Sweeping or vacuuming droppings without proper equipment spreads contaminated dust into the air.

• Touching droppings without gloves or a mask can lead to direct infection.

• Improper disposal leaves behind dangerous bacteria and viruses.

Without the right training, PPE (personal protective equipment), and sanitizing methods, you could unknowingly expose yourself to serious health hazards.

• Strange, musky odors
