Who to call in Acton
Palmdale Sheriff's Station
Acton is in the Palmdale Station's area: (661) 272-2400 (LASD Palmdale).
Medical examiner
Deaths that need investigating go to the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner, (323) 343-0714 (for families).
Barns, sheds and tack rooms
If part of the cleanup is an outbuilding with rodent droppings or nests, don't sweep or vacuum. The CDC says to open it up for 30 minutes first, then spray the droppings until very wet and wait five minutes before wiping up with gloves (CDC). A heavy infestation is a job for the company.
Tell the company about every building on the property that is involved. A separate barn or trailer may need its own plan.
