Completed project · Anaheim, CA 92804 · June 2026
Dark patches ran through the old yellow batts in this Anaheim attic, and the crew recorded moderate rodent activity across its 1,000 sq ft. In June 2026 the batts came out, droppings and nests were vacuumed up, the deck was sanitized, a vent opening was screened with wire mesh, and new R-38 24in batts went in.

The challenge
Stained, broken-up batts with rodent activity
The old batts had broken apart and were marked with dark patches, with debris scattered through them. The inspection recorded moderate rodent activity.
Insulation in that state holds the waste and the odor, so it could not stay. The crew took it out to the deck so the attic could be cleaned and sanitized and the openings closed before anything new went in.
The service
What the crew did, in order
Prep and protection
Protective floor barriers and dust-barrier tunnels set through the work path before any material was moved, so the rest of the house stayed clean.
Remove the old insulation
The existing insulation taken out with a heavy-duty vacuum across 1,000 sq ft, down to a clear, bare surface.
Clean and sanitize
Rodent waste, droppings and nests vacuumed out, then OdoBan sanitation applied to neutralize odors, pheromones and bacteria.
Seal and rodent-proof
Entry points closed with wire mesh, polyurethane foam and cement, with two to four indicator traps left as a check. Gaps around fixtures, piping, wiring and vents air-sealed in the same pass.
New insulation
New R-38 24in Fiberglass Batts installed across 1,000 sq ft, on a clean, sealed surface rather than on top of the old layer.
The result
1,000 sq ft, from stained batts to clean R-38
The attic finished with the old batts removed, droppings and nests vacuumed out, OdoBan applied, entry points sealed with wire mesh, foam and cement, gaps around fixtures, piping and wiring air-sealed, and new R-38 24in fiberglass batts across all 1,000 sq ft.
