It may be a relief to see a dead rat or other invasive creature when you know you have an infestation, but removing it yourself is unwise. Likewise, finding a deceased animal near or around your home can be disturbing for children, emit an unpleasant odor, attract unfriendly creatures, potentially pollute the ground and water, and more. It is unsafe to remove dead animals without the proper training, the proper equipment, and an adequate disposal facility.
Dead animals can carry dangerous diseases. Worse still, an animal corpse may attract predators and scavenger animals that can be dangerous or harbor other unwanted pests.
Why Professional Removal Matters
- Professional Diagnostics: It is important that communicable diseases be detected and eliminated. Infestation issues must be contained and eliminated professionally.
- Disease Control: Potentially lethal diseases like tularemia and leptospirosis are known to be contracted from animal corpses. To avoid this danger, professional cleanup is necessary.
- Health Risks: Persons with weak or compromised immune systems must not come into contact with decomposing flesh. Professional removal eliminates this danger.
- Psychological Considerations: Children, grieving people, and the mentally frail should not be exposed to deceased animals. The professionals deal with these on a regular basis and will remove the problem.
- Dumping is Ill-Advised: Dead animal corpses can pollute the water table, planting grounds, and more. For this reason, proper removal and sanitation are important.
