Dead animals on your property, inside your home, or business may pose a health hazard. A dead animal will begin to decompose, which will be accompanied by a terrible stench and an infestation of maggots that will turn into flies. Mice, rats, squirrels, raccoons, opossums, cats, birds, bats, and skunks may die in your attic, under a shed, in a crawl space, in a ceiling, in the yard, underneath a deck, in the walls, on the driveway, beneath the porch, or in the basement of your business, or home. A dead animal may also arise inside your home or business. The death of an animal can occur on your home or business property.

Death is the irreversible termination of biological functions that define a living organism.
