While rodent-borne diseases are very rare in New York, it’s still important to take precautions when cleaning areas where rodents may have been present. The biggest risk comes from stirring dust and particles into the air — which is why you should never “dry clean” rodent droppings, urine, or nesting materials.

“Dry cleaning” means sweeping, vacuuming, or brushing up materials before they’ve been thoroughly wetted down. These actions can release contaminated particles into the air where they may be inhaled. Instead, fully soak the area first and clean carefully using gloves and a mask.

Use a general-purpose household disinfectant and make sure the label specifically says “disinfectant.” You can also make a fresh bleach solution by mixing 1.5 cups of household bleach with 1 gallon of water (or 1 part bleach to 9 parts water). Always prepare bleach solutions fresh before use.
