During a recent inspection, we discovered a significant accumulation of rodent droppings under a raised floor. This type of contamination can cause persistent and unpleasant odors, but more importantly, it can pose health risks.
Basement odors can come from multiple sources:
✅Presence of rodents: urine and excrement that infiltrate the materials.
✅Water infiltration: humidity favors the proliferation of mold.
✅Decaying organic matter: nests, food scraps, or animal carcasses.
✅Plumbing problems: backups or leaks.
💡Expert advice: An unusual odor should never be taken lightly. Only a thorough inspection will identify the real source and implement the necessary corrective measures, whether it be specialized cleaning, decontamination, or structural repairs.
Your health and that of your family deserves professional investigation.
