Odor Control

Odors typically come from:

• Rodent or wildlife droppings
• Pet urine or waste
• Dead animals inside walls or attics
• Moisture and mold
• Garbage buildup or food waste
• Poor ventilation or damp basements
• Pests like cockroaches or flies
• Contaminated insulation

Our multi-step approach ensures complete odor removal:

• Source identification — locating the exact origin.
• Safe liquid or gel treatments on contaminated surfaces.
• Dust treatments for wall voids or crawlspaces.
• Removing droppings, nesting material, and dead animals.
• Sanitation and cleaning protocols.
• Correcting moisture and ventilation issues.
• Exclusion work to stop pests or wildlife from returning.

This ensures odors are removed at the source — not just masked.

Odors can indicate:

• Bacteria buildup
• Mold growth
• Pest contamination
• Wildlife waste
• Poor air quality
• Respiratory irritation
• Allergen buildup in enclosed areas

Odor problems should be addressed quickly to avoid long-term exposure.

Odors remain when:

• Droppings or urine soak into wood or insulation
  • A dead animal is hidden in a wall
  • Moisture or humidity persists
  • Ventilation is poor
  • Waste buildup is trapped in cracks or voids
  • Contaminants were not fully removed

Especially properties in New Westminster and older Metro Vancouver homes experience lingering odors due to structural gaps.

We recommend:

• Fixing leaks and reducing humidity
• Improving ventilation in basements and bathrooms
• Regularly cleaning waste areas
• Storing food properly and removing garbage frequently
• Sealing openings to prevent pests and wildlife
• Maintaining attic and crawlspace inspections
• Using dehumidifiers in damp areas

Preventing the source is key.

Sometimes yes. Odors can signal:

• Rotting or damp wood
• Damaged insulation
• Dead animals in walls
• Pest contamination
• Mold growth
• Airflow issues in attics or crawlspaces
