CRIME SCENE CLEANUP Hoarders & "Pack Rats" Hoarding is such a widespread problem that Oprah recently featured the topic on her show.  An estimated six million people are afflicted with this obsession to save, which can result in real health risks and a lower quality of life for themselves and their family.                             BEFORE Spaulding Decon Clean Up                        AFTER Spaulding Decon Clean Up Both “hoarder” and “pack rat” denote the same affliction - the inability to discard piles of garbage, endless stacks of mail, and sometimes even mounds of pet feces.   Spaulding Decon disinfects hoarder and “pack rat” areas, and though this service isn’t considered a crime scene clean up, the technicians take the same careful approach. Our commitment to confidentiality means that your privacy is respected – we’ll never reveal details to the press.  We’re in the business of healing – and if that means taking a hoarder’s stash away, that’s what we’ll do. If rodents have infested the residence, their droppings could pose a significant health risk.  Transmitted through rat feces, the Hantavirus is a dangerous airborne threat.  If you find rat feces in a hoarder’s residence, call Spaulding Decon.  Do not attempt clean up yourself; only properly-trained professionals should dispose of it. Our cleaning products are all environmentally friendly, and we’ll save anything you deem salvageable.  Let us know if you’d like to donate items to charity.  Anything that can be saved can be passed on to someone less fortunate. Hoarding is a real disease that affects a myriad of people throughout the world.  If you have a parent who is a hoarder, find support at www.childrenofhoarders.com.  Then call Spaulding Decon and begin the healing process.
