If you have noticed strange smells, buzzing flights, or unexplained noises, you may be dealing with a pest infestation or dead animals. These situations can bring on several challenges that should not be overlooked, and put at risk the safety of your home and family.
As professionals with years of experience, we understand what waiting too long can lead to. Here's why acting quickly matters:
Preventing odors: When the decomposition of a dead animal starts, it can lead to strong smells that can spread through your home. These make everyday activities uncomfortable and can be difficult to resolve if not promptly addressed.
Avoiding health hazards: Decomposing carcasses can cause the spread of harmful bacteria and attract insects. This poses a significant disease risk to your family, guests, and pets.
Reducing the risk of subsequent infestations: Rodents and wildlife can bring fleas, mites, or ticks into the home. These pests can remain around even after the removal of a dead animal.
Preserving your home's structure: Animals often die in hard-to-reach areas like wall cavities, insulation, or ductwork. If not promptly found and removed, they can cause stains, pests, infestations, and more severe damage over time.
When you discover a dead animal on your property, you may feel overwhelmed. This is normal-the last thing you'll want is to try a DIY approach that can put yourself and your family at risk. This is why it is essential to partner with an expert. At Nature Shield, we guide you through each step and we handle the situation promptly, professionally, and with full transparency.
Here's what you can expect when partnering with us:
Same-Day Response: Our team of experts understands that when dealing with a dead animal, time is of the essence. That is why we strive to offer same-day carcass removal services across Maryland's counties, prioritizing your need for urgent action.
Inspection and Location: The first step is to carry out a thorough inspection throughout your home, including attics, basements, crawl spaces, and wall cavities, as dead animals can hide in hard-to-find places. Our team uses experience and professional tools to accurately locate the carcass, as well as the presence of pests and other damages.
Carcass Removal: Once found, we remove the dead animal. During this process, our team will use advanced tools and take every precaution to avoid contaminating your living spaces. Our solutions always follow health and safety standards.
Odor Remediation and Sanitization: After we have removed the carcass, we move on to ensuring the safety and livability of your home. We do so by providing odor remediation and attic/basement sanitization services to neutralize smells, restore stained surfaces, and sanitize the affected area.
Entry Point Inspection and Repairs: After the urgent matter is resolved, our team takes steps to prevent recurring situations or future infestations. We carry out a thorough entry-point inspection of common areas such as damaged vents, roof gaps, or foundation cracks. When possible entries are identified, our team can then seal access points and make needed repairs.
Wildlife Damage Assessment: During removal, we also assess for any collateral damage such as chewed wires, soiled insulation, or weakened structures. We'll explain our findings clearly and recommend practical repair plans and solutions for wildlife exclusion that are suited to your specific needs and goals.
At Nature Shield, we strive to provide comprehensive services that allow you to live comfortably in your home. Beyond dead animal removal services in Maryland, you can also access support with dead animal smell removal, attic and basement sanitization, odor remediation, carcass removal from unusual or hard-to-reach locations, consulting and insurance documentation, and pest and wildlife exclusion solutions to help reduce the chances of future issues.

Our service begins with a free inspection. Our team arranges a convenient time to visit your Maryland property, track down the source of the odor, and locate the carcass. We check likely problem areas such as attics, crawlspaces, basements, wall voids, and exterior structures so you know what you’re dealing with and where.

After the inspection, we provide you with a tailored plan that explains how we will remove the dead animal and address any related damage or contamination. This no-obligation plan outlines the steps for access, cleanup, odor remediation, and any recommended repairs or exclusion work so you know exactly what to expect before we begin.

Finally, with your permission, we carefully remove and dispose of the carcass according to local regulations, then clean and sanitize affected areas to help reduce odors and health risks. We can also provide additional odor remediation as needed and recommend wildlife and pest exclusion measures to help prevent future incidents.
When choosing an expert to partner with, your decision can make all the difference. Here's what we promise:
