Dead-Animal Inspection & Removal in Greater Los Angeles
A persistent odor beneath the house or inside a structure can be difficult to trace. Brave Guys inspects accessible areas, explains the source and access limits, and quotes removal before the work begins.
Text your name, service address and problem. Online requests are also available below.
Understand the problem
The inspection is source-finding work.
Dead-animal inspection is a paid service even though estimates are free. It covers inspection and efforts to locate the suspected source; it is not a guarantee that every concealed source can be reached or recovered. The condition and location of the remains determine the removal scope.
When accessible and approved, we remove the remains and perform targeted disinfection of the immediate affected area. Additional access, larger cleanup, material replacement or exclusion repairs are discussed separately. Removing the source does not guarantee that odor absorbed into surrounding materials disappears immediately.
The plan before the work
What happens next
Inspect and quote
Confirm the $175 inspection, assess accessible areas and explain the removal price and any access limits.
Remove the accessible source
After approval, complete the agreed removal and local disinfection. Discuss any additional work separately.
Pricing without surprises
Know the scope before you approve it.
Dead-animal inspection: $175. Removal is generally approximately $100–$300 depending on access, location and decomposition. The removal range does not include the inspection fee. The applicable total is explained before you approve work.
Estimates & inspection feesCommon questions
Before your visit
Is the dead-animal inspection free?
No. Estimates are free, but dead-animal inspection is $175 for the inspection and source-location effort. Removal is a separate service with its price explained before approval.
Can you guarantee that you will find it?
No. Access and concealed construction can limit what can be located or recovered. We explain findings and limitations rather than promise an exact result before inspection.
Does the removal include disinfection?
Targeted disinfection of the immediate affected area is included in the approved removal scope. More extensive cleanup or material replacement is discussed separately.
Can you also close the opening?
Yes, when the entry is identified, accessible and appropriate for exclusion. Repair pricing is separate unless included in the approved proposal, and the space must be clear of live animals first.
