What happens to deceased animals found in the home?
They are handled with care and disposed of properly, as local rules require. The cleanup team can explain how this is done and which agency to contact if needed.
Who removes the animals, and who cleans afterward?

What if pests such as fleas or rodents are in the home?

What does the owner need to do before calling?
