Wildlife infestations aren't a nice problem to have. Getting rid of the animals, though, is the easy part. Animal droppings, urine, nesting materials, and the foul aroma that comes with a pest infestation can be hazardous to your health and leave you feeling like no matter what you do, your home just isn't as clean as it once was.
Wildlife infestations aren't a nice problem to have. Getting rid of the animals, though, is the easy part. Animal droppings, urine, nesting materials, and the foul aroma that comes with a pest infestation can be hazardous to your health and leave you feeling like no matter what you do, your home just isn't as clean as it once was.
This is where you need professional help for the post-infestation clean-up, whether you can visibly see signs of destruction in your home or not.
Wildlife waste clean-up and sanitization in Maryland isn't just another clean-up job; it's biohazard work. At Nature Shield, we handle all wildlife waste clean-up jobs using protective equipment, HEPA-filtered systems, and medical-grade disinfectant to make your home healthy again.

You might think that once the infestations are gone, the job is over. And sure, it might feel that way for a week or two. But then the smell creeps back in, and your home feels less than fresh and clean. This is the part of an infestation no one mentions - the clean up.
Animal waste left in attics and walls is worse than it might first appear. It's not just the odor, it's the rodent droppings or the bat guano, for example. Each of these can release spores into the air that trigger breathing issues, while urine and nesting debris soak into drywall and wood, eating away at the structure.
We come in with HEPA vacuums, full protective gear, and tools built exactly for this kind of work.
Every job starts the same way: we look, listen, and trace the problem. Sometimes, it's obvious; sometimes it's buried behind insulation or hiding behind beams. Then:
Containment first. We seal the areas, cover the floors, and get protective gear on. This keeps dust and spores from spreading through the house.
Removal next. HEPA vacuuming pulls out droppings and nesting debris. Heavy buildup - guano or urine cleanup goes into sealed bags for safe disposal.
Deep clean. Disinfecting and deodorizing with medical-grade products, treating wood, insulation, and anything that might still hold bacteria or odor.
Odor remediation. This is needed if there's a lingering smell - we can break down molecules to remove them, not just hide them.
Beyond cleaning. Attic sanitization and parasite reduction ensure that no more fleas, mites, or ticks can stick around.
Restore and check. Next, we replace insulation, tighten boards, and confirm ventilation. That's your post removal restoration - delivering a secure environment again.
Final sweep. We do one last HEPA pass, a last disinfection round, then a walkthrough so you know exactly what was done.
Everything is handled with care and compliance from start to finish. It's slow and steady, but it's thorough and complete.

Our service begins with a free inspection. We arrange a convenient time to visit your Maryland property, identify where droppings, urine, or nesting materials are present, and assess the extent of contamination in attics, crawl spaces, garages, or other affected areas.

After the inspection, we provide you with a tailored plan that explains how we will remove waste, clean and sanitize surfaces, and address any damaged materials. This no-obligation plan outlines the methods and products we use so you know exactly what to expect before work begins.

With your approval, we remove animal waste and soiled materials, then clean and sanitize affected areas to help reduce odors and health concerns. When needed, we can recommend or perform additional services—such as insulation replacement or exclusion work—to help restore your home and lower the risk of future problems.
Every infestation leaves a different mess. But the cleanup processes we use are built to handle them all - from nesting materials to droppings, fur, and urine contamination, nothing is too complex for us at Nature Shield.
Our Wildlife Damage Control Operators are licensed with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources and are trained to clean and sanitize spaces affected by a wide range of animals, including squirrels, raccoons, skunks, bats, birds, coyotes, dead animals, beavers, groundhogs, opossums, deer, and foxes.
Each species leaves its own trail - droppings, hair, nesting materials, or biological waste- and each requires a different approach.
If you're not sure what caused the mess, it's not a problem. We've seen it all and can help you identify the culprit to ensure we use the correct cleaning techniques for a full cleanup and sanitization of your home.
When wildlife has torn through your attic or left behind a smell you can't get rid of, you don't want big promises; you just want someone who handles it. That's where Nature Shield comes in.
We're licensed, insured, and trained to deal with every part of wildlife and pest cleanup. Not just the removal of any infestation, but the mess they leave behind once you've eradicated the problem. The damage. The smell. They don't just go once you remove the problem.
Our team has been doing this for over 6 years. Real homes, real families. Real chaos. Our background in wildlife ecology helps too - we know how animals think, where they hide, and how to stop them from coming back.
And we're veteran-owned, meaning you can rest assured you're getting only the highest standards and service - we show up when we say we will, talk straight, and finish the job properly. No upselling, no nonsense - just solid work with results that speak for themselves.
If you're ready to get rid of the aftermath of an infestation or post-animal removal, you can request your free inspection today and let Nature Shield take the stress off your plate.
