Odor Removal Services in St. Louis, MO

Persistent odors can make a home or business uncomfortable, embarrassing, and difficult to enjoy. Whether the smell comes from pets, smoke, mildew, rodents, hoarding, water damage, or decomposition, lingering odors are rarely solved with standard cleaning products.
T.A.C.T. St. Louis provides professional odor removal services throughout the St. Louis area for residential and commercial properties. Our technicians eliminate odors at their source—not just the smell you notice, but the bacteria and contaminants causing it—so your space stays clean and fresh long after treatment.
We use advanced deodorization equipment, professional-grade disinfectants, and proven remediation techniques to deliver safe, long-lasting results.
Common Odors We Remove
Pet Odors
Pet urine and dander are among the most stubborn odors in homes and rental properties. Even after surface cleaning, urine can soak into carpet padding, furniture, baseboards, and subfloors.
Our pet odor removal process targets contamination below the surface to permanently eliminate odors rather than masking them. For severe cases involving hoarding or heavy contamination, professional biohazard cleanup may be recommended.
Smoke Odors
Smoke from cigarettes, cigars, fireplaces, or fires can linger for years. Smoke particles penetrate walls, ceilings, fabrics, and HVAC systems, making DIY solutions ineffective.
We use specialized deodorization methods to neutralize smoke odors throughout the entire structure, including air ducts and hard-to-reach spaces.
Cooking Odors
Strong food odors from spices, oils, or burnt food can linger long after meals are over—especially in apartments, restaurants, or multi-unit buildings.
Our odor removal treatments safely remove lingering cooking smells while keeping kitchens and dining areas fresh and inviting.
Mildew and Mold Odors
Musty odors often indicate excess moisture, mildew, or mold growth. These smells commonly appear in basements, bathrooms, kitchens, and areas affected by water damage.
We identify and address the source of the odor, remove odor-causing contaminants, and help prevent the smell from returning by resolving the underlying moisture issue. For more information on the health risks of indoor mold, visit the EPA’s Mold Resources.
Decomposition Odors
Unattended deaths require professional odor removal and biohazard cleanup. Bodily fluids can seep into flooring, drywall, furniture, and other porous materials, creating strong odors and serious health risks.
Our certified technicians follow strict safety protocols to remove affected materials, disinfect the area, and eliminate odor-causing bacteria so the space can be safely restored.
Rodent Infestation Odors
Rodents leave behind urine, droppings, nesting materials, and sometimes carcasses—each producing strong odors and potential health hazards. Rodent contamination can expose occupants to diseases such as hantavirus, leptospirosis, and salmonella.
We provide professional rodent droppings cleanup and odor removal, including cleaning inside walls, attics, crawlspaces, and basements. Proper cleanup helps prevent lingering odors and reduces the risk of reinfestation.
Why Professional Odor Removal Matters
Over-the-counter products often mask smells temporarily, allowing odor-causing bacteria to remain. Professional odor remediation:
- Eliminates odors at the source
- Improves indoor air quality
- Reduces health risks
- Helps restore property value
- Prevents odors from returning
