Mouse droppings and urine can carry germs, including hantavirus in some wild rodents. They are not poisonous like a chemical, but breathing in dust or touching them without protection can make people sick.
Hard surfaces and items in sealed plastic containers can usually be cleaned and kept. Insulation, cardboard and fabric soiled with droppings or urine are generally discarded. The crew sorts items with you before anything is thrown out.
Rodent droppings are treated as a contamination hazard because they can carry germs. In homes, the key risk is dust. In larger or older infestations, cleanup follows biohazard-style methods with protective gear and sealed disposal.
Insulation soaks up droppings, urine and odor and cannot be reliably cleaned. Removing it takes away both the contamination and the smell. Replacement insulation is usually a separate job.
Common signs are small pellet droppings, shredded nesting material, grease marks along beams, gnaw marks and a musky smell. Scratching sounds at night can also point to rodents. A cleanup team can judge how much needs to be removed.
Droppings can carry germs, so wet cleaning with protection comes first.
