Attic Restoration in Central Florida

After raccoons, bats, rats, or squirrels nest in your attic, the insulation is contaminated with droppings, urine, hair, and parasites. Beyond smell, this is a real health and air-quality issue, and your insulation is no longer functioning. Full vacuum removal, decontamination, air sealing, and re-insulation to current code R-value.

Why Wildlife-Damaged Attic Insulation Has to Come Out

Most homeowners hope they can just spot-clean a wildlife mess and skip the full restoration cost. We understand โ€” but here’s why that almost never works:

  • Urine soaks into the entire insulation pad. Wildlife urine wicks several feet through blown-in cellulose. The visible “stained” area is a small fraction of the actual contaminated material.
  • Pathogens persist for years. Raccoon roundworm eggs survive 5+ years even in dry conditions. Histoplasmosis spores in bat guano survive decades. You can’t spray-treat your way out of this.
  • Insulation R-value is destroyed. Compressed, soiled insulation loses 40โ€“60% of its rated R-value. Your AC bills are paying for the damage every month.

Vacuum removal of contaminated insulation, antimicrobial decontamination, air sealing of ceiling penetrations (a major energy-loss point most homes have), then blown-in cellulose or fiberglass to current code R-value. Insurance claim documentation included.

Insurance Coverage

Wildlife-caused insulation damage is sometimes covered under “sudden and accidental” provisions of homeowner policies. We document with before/after photos, scope of work, and itemized invoices ready for claims.

What Customers Say

Real reviews from Central Florida homeowners we’ve helped.

Heard scratching above our bedroom for two weeks. Two other companies wanted to spray pesticide and call it done. Central Florida Trapper actually went into the attic, found the roof rat entry, sealed it, and replaced the contaminated insulation.

A raccoon tore through our soffit and was raising kits. They located the babies, reunited them with mom outside, sealed everything, cleaned the attic. Done in three days. Insurance paid most because the paperwork was so thorough.

Same-day for a snake on our pool deck. Turned out to be a non-venomous black racer, but they explained the difference, removed it safely, and didn’t charge us a panic fee. Will absolutely call again.

Often yes, under “sudden and accidental” wildlife damage provisions. We provide before/after photos, scope of work, and itemized invoices formatted for claim submission.

Both. We can do removal-only, restoration-only, or full end-to-end including wildlife removal + exclusion + decontamination + re-insulation.

Florida code requires R-30 minimum for attics (R-38 recommended). We blow in cellulose or fiberglass to current code R-value or higher per your preference.
