But there is no free dead animal removal in Galesburg for a carcass on your property or in your home. If you have a bad smell in your house, a decaying animal is a good guess, especially if you've had a pest control company that poisoned rodents. But all animals die, and many of them do so in houses, or under your shed, or deck, or porch, or attic, or crawlspace. We are the experts that can remove it and make the smell go away!

Galesburg dead animal tip of the month: How long does it take for different animals to decompose (rat, raccoon, etc) - The time it takes for the body of an animal to decompose has to do with more than its size, though, as a general rule, the larger the animal, the longer it takes. That can only be said, however, if environment conditions are the same. A 10lb animal in a dry environment, for example, may take longer to decompose than a 30lb animal in a moist environment. If all the factors are equal, research from the journal Forensic Science International tell us that smaller animals have a decomposition rate of 2.82 times that of larger animals. Again, this is when comparing the same animal, just at different weights. Animal decomposition will vary depending on moisture, temperature, the animal's skin/coat, and location. A dead rat in your wall may take weeks to deteriorate compared to the days it takes one out in nature.
