No. Dry sweeping or standard vacuuming stirs up dust and can spread germs. Air out the space, wet the droppings with disinfectant, wipe them up with paper towels and seal everything in a bag.
Disinfectants can inactivate the virus, which is why droppings are soaked before they are wiped up. The method matters as much as the product. Follow label directions and never mix cleaners.
Pest control removes rodents and seals entry points. Rodent cleanup removes droppings, urine, nests and contaminated materials, and disinfects the area. Many properties need both, one after the other.
Food, dishes and shelves that rodents touched are sorted. Items that cannot be sanitized are discarded, and hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected. Anything in sealed containers can usually be saved.
A rodent cleanup service or biohazard cleanup team usually does this work. Attics and crawl spaces are tight, dusty and hard to reach, and soiled insulation often has to be removed. Pest control deals with the animals themselves.
For small areas, usually yes, if the work zone is sealed off. For attics or heavy contamination, many owners prefer to stay away while the crew works. The team will explain what is best for your situation.
