Summer highs in Kohler are milder, around 82 degrees in July, but a shut-up house with animal waste still builds ammonia and attracts flies and fleas. Only about 6% of homes in Sheboygan County are vacant, so most animal hoarding cleanups here involve a home that someone owns or rents and wants to restore.
What animal hoarding cleanup covers:
- A final inspection of each room and a plan for repairs, pest control and upkeep
- Clearing of food, bowls, crates, cages and supplies left in the home
- Control of ammonia and dust with air movement and respiratory protection for the crew
- Plain-language notes on damage found, useful for landlords, buyers and insurers
- Sorting out personal papers, photos and valuables for the owner or family

Waste, bedding and ruined flooring or drywall are bagged and carried out. Protective gear and air control keep dust and ammonia contained.

Animal Hoarding Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Kohler, WI
Who removes the animals, and who cleans afterward?
Animal control, a humane society or a rescue group usually cares for the animals. A cleanup team takes care of the home afterward. Ask the agency when the home is clear, then call a team to plan the work.
How should I treat the person who kept the animals?
With kindness and without blame. Many people who kept too many animals loved them and wanted to help. Feelings run high after animals are removed, and support from a doctor or counselor can help.
Is animal hoarding cleanup different from pet odor cleaning?
Yes. Pet odor cleaning is meant for a few accidents on a surface. Animal hoarding cleanup deals with widespread waste, soaked materials, ammonia, pests and structural odor, and it needs protective gear and removal work.
Can I clean up after animal hoarding myself?
Only if the area is small, the surface is hard and the air is easy to breathe, and then with gloves, a mask and open windows. Widespread waste, soaked floors, strong odor or pests call for a crew.
Will personal belongings and papers be saved?
Yes where they can be. The crew sets aside papers, photos, medicine and valuables that can be cleaned, and the owner can name items that must be kept. Items too soiled to clean safely are discarded.
Is it safe to enter a home after animal hoarding?
Not without protection. Ammonia, dust and germs can affect the eyes, lungs and skin. Crews wear protective suits, gloves, boots and respiratory protection, and they set up air control to protect clean areas.
