Many homes in Hampton, about 54%, were built before 1980. Older insulation and wood framing soak up fluids and hold odor for a long time. With roughly 50 inches of annual rainfall in Hampton, damp crawl spaces and wall voids make dead animal fluids and odor linger longer.

- Carcass removal from walls, attics, crawl spaces, vents, chimneys and ductwork
- Cleanup for vacant, rental and commercial properties with documentation for managers

Dead Animal Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Hampton, AR
What rules apply to dead animal removal in Arkansas?
Rules for removing and disposing of dead animals vary by city and county, and animal services handle public property in many places. Worker safety follows OSHA rules for contaminated materials. Ask your city or county what applies where you are.
Can a dead animal in the ductwork spread smell through the house?
Yes. Animals can die inside ducts, and the heating and cooling system then moves the odor through every room. Cleanup includes removing the animal and treating vents and duct openings.
Who removes dead animals from the road or yard?
Rules vary by city and county. Animal services or public works often remove animals from public roads and property, while private property is usually the owner's responsibility. Call your city or county animal services to learn what applies.
Do cleanup crews deal with live animals?
No. Wildlife and pest professionals deal with live animals and seal entry points. You get a cleanup team for carcasses, fluids, nests and odor, and the two services often work together on the same job.
Is it safe to stay home during dead animal cleanup?
For work in an attic or crawl space, many people stay in the home while the crew works with containment. For heavy odor or large animals, you may prefer to be away. The team will say what makes sense for your situation.
How do you find a dead animal in a wall?
The crew follows the odor, checks vents, attic access and crawl spaces, and looks for flies and stains. Sometimes a small camera or a small opening in drywall is needed. Once the animal is found, it is removed and the area is cleaned.
