The presence of animal carcasses in your property can expose the residents to health risks.

We are experts in dead animal removal, and take our job seriously. When removing dead animals, we do a COMPLETE job — not only do we remove the dead animal from your home or yard, we also decontaminate the area, deodorize it, and dispose of the animal or cremate it. If you aren't sure whether the stench in your house is due to a rotting carcass or another reason, we can sniff it out with our noses from our years of experience. We remove dead raccoons, dead opossums, dead skunks, dead squirrels, dead birds, even dead dogs and cats. We frequently remove dead rodents from inside walls, because poison kills rats and mice, who die in your house. We completely solve your dead animal problem by taking these steps:

  • Sniff out the dead animal if it is somewhere in your home
  • When necessary, for example if the animal is in a wall or under your house, cut a hole to remove the animal
  • Remove the dead animal, safely and completely (and seal the hole if needed)
  • Finish the job by decontaminating and deodorizing your home
  • Properly dispose of the dead animal through incineration or other means
  • Prevent it from happening again by finding out how they got in your house


Dead animal carcass removal is specialty work. Sometimes the job is simple, such as a dead opossum in the yard, in which case we can simply wear our gloves and respirator mask, bag the carcass, and take it away for incineration. Sometimes this is more complex, such as when the dead animal is under a home crawlspace, under a porch or deck or shed. Or if the animal is larger, such as a dog or a deer. The most complex cases are dead animals inside the house. The animal may have died inside the attic, or down in the walls, or the duct work, or any other part of the architecture. You may have a bad smell in your home, and you're not even sure what's causing it. We've removed not just dead animals, but rotting food, bad mold, etc. We specialize in locating the source of the smell, and we very commonly cut a hole in the ceiling or wall to remove the animal. We remove every bit of the carcass, mop up the juices, vacuum the maggots, spray it and wipe it down with disinfectant, cleaner, and we repair the hole we cut. In some cases we use ozone machines to neutralize odor.

Manchester Dead Animal Tip: How to cut out a dead animal from inside a wall

Whether you live in the city or country, wild animals that move into your space in search of food, water, and shelter can plague you. Unfortunately, these same creatures can die while in your home. Natural causes, traps, or poison, fighting amongst themselves, or accidents can all leave you with a rotting carcass in your home. Often these creatures are so tiny that they fit in confined spaces between walls and under furniture and floorboards. Do not be fooled by size, even a tiny mouse can stink up your house when rotting in your walls or attic. It is paramount that you find the body as soon as possible. A rotting critter attracts bugs, can spread disease, and stinks up your home.

You need to locate and dispose of that carcass quickly, but you must also take measures to do it safely!

When talking about wild animals, almost all of them have parasites like fleas, ticks, mites, and worms. Many can spread a myriad of dangerous diseases alive or dead! To avoid breathing in hazardous waste, or contact on your skin, always use protective gear. A mask, long sleeves, rubber or latex gloves, and protective goggles are necessary when handling dead creatures. It is also a good idea to have an enzyme-based disinfectant on hand as well as pesticide, rags, and garbage bag.

Make sure that what you are smelling is actually a death stench. Many other things like spoiled food, feces, or urine have a putrid odor. Your problem could be solved by cleaning up a simple mess. If you determine it is the smell of rotting carcass, see if you can determine the cause of death. This can help pinpoint the location. If you put out poison, most rodents become very thirsty and are drawn to a source of water. A sick or hurt animal will often return to its nest to die. Rodents generally like dark and secluded areas, so if you suspect mice or rats, start looking under or behind furniture and boxes is a good start. If you are aware of traps, check them and the area around them.

If, after a thorough search, you conclude that a creature has died inside your wall, you will most likely have to cut the wall open in order to retrieve the body. A reciprocating saw will do the job with the least amount of damage to your home. It should also make repairs easier. Be prepared to clean up bugs, rot, and fluids. The stench from a carcass is the result of a bacterial reaction that occurs in the natural breakdown of dead flesh. After removing the carcass, you should quickly seal it in a plastic bag. Use a good quality disinfectant and rags to wipe up secretions, rot, or droppings left. If the creature died on something like insulation, cloth, or other “soft” surfaces, they must be disposed of. If you feel that this DIY task is too much for you, call a local wild animal removal service. They will handle all the “dirty” work for you.
