Waste, bedding, crates and ruined items are bagged and sealed. Anything that may carry germs is handled with extra care.
Approved disinfectants are applied and left wet for the time on the label. The crew checks the air and surfaces in each room before leaving.

With kindness and without blame. Many people who kept too many animals loved them and wanted to help. Feelings run high after animals are removed, and support from a doctor or counselor can help.
