Removing Animal Droppings From Your Insulation
Animal droppings in your insulation, is one of the most common calls we receive in the Greater Jacksonville Bay area. Any time a animal gets in under your home or in your attic, it is because it is looking for a secure, cozy area to have young. Insulation strips and blown -in insulation makes a great nesting material for animals. Large and small animals will utilize insulation to create a suitable nesting location and will tear away chunks of insulation and drag it into a concealed area of the attic or crawlspace.
Animal feces in your insulation is a hazard, as droppings inside a attic or crawlspace do not breakdown with limited ventilation. If droppings were outside they can breakdown naturally exposed to the elements. Droppings inside can thrive with bacteria, pathogens, and other diseases, and can really be a great concern when animals are present in the attic or crawlspace disturbing the droppings. Airborne particulates from disturbed animal droppings will contaminate insulation that may other wise look ok. This is why it is crucial to have a wildlife specialist with Animal Pros to inspect your attic and crawlspace insulation.
Animal droppings accumulated in your attic insulation needs to be manually removed to keep circulation of particulates down to a minimum. Most insulation companies will remove droppings and insulation together in insulation hoses, creating a hazardous environment that can cause fecal spores to become airborne. That is why professional help for dropping removal from insulation should only be performed by a Animal Pros specialist.
Removing Animal Nests and Bird Nests From Insulation
When wildlife invades your attic or crawlspace, it is usually to create a suitable nesting location to have young. Animals from mice and birds, to even opossums, raccoons, and rats will build nests large enough to create a unsafe hazardous environment in your attic and crawlspace. Nests can harbor animal droppings, pathogens, and parasites in most all cases.
Professional help is recommended when removing nesting materials from insulation. Contact a Animal Pros insulation specialist for nesting removal from your attic or crawlspace.

Insulation That Repels Animals and Rodents Jacksonville
Many requests are made for information on rodent or animal repelling insulation. Unfortunately, there is nothing that exists of this nature. Boric Acid insulation is treated with a insecticide for cockroaches, termites, fleas, silver fish, and many other insects, although studies are not clearly conclusive to its effectiveness. However, it is not a rodent or animal deterrent. We have seen this marketed for keeping rodents and raccoons away, but studies have been done and can be found online, that boric acid insulation does not keep animals away. For professional insulation help, contact the experts at Animal Pros.
