Rodent and insulation replacement

Stephen Lynch
Posted

Hello,

I have a rental property where the tenant reported a smell in the bedroom. Turns out it's likely a dead rodent in the attic, droppings were pretty widespread. However, the cost of insulation removal & replacement is obviously not cheap so I'm trying to understand the best practice here. Do you normally just remove the dead rodent, clean up where you can (wood walk way/HVAC) and then leave the insulation as is? or replace it all?

Thanks,
Stephen
