Richmond Animal Hoarding Cleanup

Animal hoarding can be hazardous to not only the owners, but the animals as well. This practice leads to a severe drought of sanitation, food, water, medical care, and space. Conditions can become severe and should be treated by professionals.

You called the right 
ones for the job.

Nobody wins when it comes to animal hoarding. It can be a very dangerous situation for both the property owner and the animals themselves.

At Bio-One of Richmond, the safety risks are understood. We aim to provide a healthy and livable environment for anybody who’s been involved. 

Owner Risk

In our experience, the owners are put at great risk by hoarding animals. The danger lies in the fact that they can’t see that. Once the hoarding has started, animals are continually welcomed with no end in sight. The owner tends to neglect their own needs and provide for the animals first. 

Hygiene, food and water are the first to be affected by this practice. Animal waste gets airborne and can directly impact any food and water sources. This animal waste could be coming from:

  • rats
  • dogs
  • cats

Typically, their waste carries bacteria and parasites which are linked to human disease. Thus, tainting food and water available to the owner without their knowledge. 

Animal Risk

Much like owners, the animals in these situations tend to suffer from poor nutrition. It’s not uncommon to die from starvation.

These animals get into fights over territory and are frequently injured. Untreated maladies and mental distress from constantly fighting doesn’t end well. It’s not a good environment for them to be in. 

Cleaning Process

We work closely with the owner to ensure these risks are understood. Once that step has been reached, we continue with our cleaning process:

  1. Any items that have been highly contaminated by animal waste will be removed
  2. Cross-contamination safety protocols will be in place as a precautionary measure
  3. Once removed, the items will be disposed of responsibly

Our professional cleaning crews will be able to transform the impacted area into an unrecognizable utopia. Ultimately, we want to leave the home as good as new. Your comfort and safety is our top priority. 

Community Outreach

At Bio-One of Richmond, we work closely with the Glen Allen, VA community to ensure a safe and clean environment. We strive to make a difference here.

For many years now, we’ve been proud to partner with local authorities, charities and other groups. We offer them the most up to date cleaning methods and techniques to keep our area safe. As the owner, I, Marc Garber, can promise that you’ll receive the best help available from the professionals at Bio-One of Richmond.

Marc goes above and beyond in his assessment of your needs, even if you end up not needing his company. Between a phone consultation and on-... site visit, he spent at least two hours examining our previous house for rodent activity. He thoroughly examined every room, including climbing around our attic and through the crawlspace, taking detailed photos/notes to explain his findings. I felt more than comfortable with the results after discussing everything with Marc, and truly appreciate the time he spent on someone who wasn't even a paying customer.  Read more >

Many many many thanks to Mark and his wonderful team of professionals who took care of my father‘s home after his passing. The entire job wa... s completed in five days and was conducted with the utmost dignity and respect. The home had a lot of stuff to clean out and sort through; and Mark and his team did an absolutely wonderful job going through each box, every drawer and every cabinet in order to see what should be kept and what could be thrown away. Not only did they do a fantastic job with the home, but I personally was able to help one of his workers with a solar system that we had installed and he was able to remove it safely and use it for his own. Thank you Mark for the amazing job that you and your team did!  Read more >

I see why Mark has a 5 star rating. I had the pleasure of speaking to him over the phone. I have not used services as of yet as we are not s... ure of the course of action yet on my part. Mark spent a total of 32 minutes with me on the phone listening to my special situation, called a competitor of his thinking he may be better suited for the job, called me back to follow up for 15 more minutes. With the situation I have many people write others off as crazy or made up in your head, especially doctors, yes doctors of all people. Mark listened and offered suggestions and knew of one former client of his in the same situation. He cares about people in general and has empathy and compassion. In the even that I do need this type of service I will certainly use him and write another review but I felt just this interaction with him speaks volumes. Thank you Mark for being a listening ear and a compassionate caring empathetic human. You didn’t write me off when all others have. I thank you sir!  Read more >
