Verminous Property Clearance

A verminous property is one where there is clear signs of decay, faeces or clinical waste including such items as: -

• Decaying and rotting food
• Human or animal faeces
• Needles, syringes and other drug related items
• Human or animal tissue
• Decaying and rotting waste in general
• Blood or bodily fluids
• Swabs or dressing

Verminous Waste represents a serious health risk and must be dealt with professionally. Failure to deal with verminous waste properly can lead to prosecution. We know, from our experience doing work for local councils, that those who do not responsibly remove verminous waste are likely to end up in court and receive either heavy fines or, in extreme cases, a prison sentence.

Health risks include: -

• Eye, stomach, and skin infections
• HIV, Hepatitis
• Salmonella, E. Coli, Food poisoning
• Weil’s disease
• Gangrene
• Chest pains, dizziness, fatigue, fever

We tackle verminous property clearance with a professional, certified, CRB checked team who use the appropriate protective clothing and are inoculated against potential health risks. In addition to the faeces, rotting food and clinical matter, we also remove all agreed contaminated items such as carpets, curtains, furniture, electrical goods and general rubbish meeting both environmental and health and safety regulations.

We also disinfect and clean the property after the verminous materials have been removed.

If we will uncover any items that we believe may have sentimental value or are valuable objects, we will put these to one side for the customer to review and decide if they want to keep these items or not.
