The idea that mice riot, rot garbage, and spit out human excrement is enough for everyone to quiver.
But that’s a normal job for waste removal specialists Oridan Klee (27) and Camsimpson (26), who live in Bromsgrove, West Midlands.

They are tasked with cleaning up dirty apartments left by runaway renters, hoarding stashes, and gag-inducing trash that most of us can’t imagine.
“Dirty partners” claim that “the work is never too big or too small,” but even if you’re shocked by the stinking and unpleasant discoveries.
It’s certainly a filthy business, and the duo who will now star in the filthy business of the new BBC documentary will tell you everything about it.
Hidden “box of horror”
The dirt-crushing duo are “don’t care”, but even today some horrifying work still plagues them.
“No more surprises, but the impact factor is always there,” C & C Waste Management’s Cam told The Sun.
“What I hate to deal with is human filth. The most annoying thing we found was a box of human poop during garden clearance.
“I’m glad the excrement was contained, but it smelled horrible and stinked our cage trailer for days.
“That was one of the things we didn’t want to ask. I think ignorance is bliss.
“I think they’re sorry for what we’ve experienced.”
Even Ori, the co-founder of the business, struggled to deal with the stinks and he lived and grew up around the “farm stinks”.
I added: “You think to yourself, it certainly can’t be worse than that.”
Tenant terrorism

Working with removal requires nerves of steel, as Cam found while cleaning up a house abandoned by a former resident.
He states: “I remember the smell of the house. Outside, I found a hole that looked like something had bitten.
“Later, something fell to the floor while removing the last cabinet.
“The next thing I learned was that the mouse ran up and jumped out of the house.
“I also ran away. I left the property right away. I don’t think anyone has seen me move so fast!”
Later, Cam was told that the tenant was feeding the mice, which helped them grow to “at least one foot long.”
Hoarding horror

Ori and Kam expected a “simple job” before leaving for the hoarding house to get rid of the “garbage pile,” but when they arrived, it was a completely different story.
“I went to the hoarding house, and I’ve never seen anything worse than that, we were really thrown deep,” Ori said.
“I thought it would take a few days to clean up, but it took about 8 days because it was full of garbage.
“From the floor to the ceiling, it was full of old toys, collectibles, tools, magazines and more.
“It was an organized mess, but it had so many mountains and everything was pushed back further.
“We removed the trash shell and it was like,’Oh, oh, oh!’, Because there were more stacks hidden behind it.”
Bee fight

Before a job for a family friend, Ori and Kam were told about “several bees” flying around the area – but nothing to prepare them for what happened next. There was not.
“When we started to lower the hut, we found some bees, but as we went further, more and more bees appeared,” Ori recalled.
“When I removed one plasterboard and then banged it, I faced five beehives and hundreds of beehives flew in.
“That day, a big guy with the nickname” Chunk “was working, but I’ve never seen him run away so fast.
“He’s been out many times in the last two days, so I think he’s now holding a world record with a five-meter dash.
“We had to call for pest control to help us, and what started when the two-day job changed to three.”
A secret place to hide sex toys
I made an amazing discovery while cleaning up the garage for someone who lost the duo.
“We went to the workshop and found a 14-inch dildo. We definitely didn’t expect it,” Cam explained.
“We decided not to tell the person who hired us for the job, in case we were confused and defended it ourselves … ever!”
High-rise horror

The most shocking sight was from the clearance at the end of the tenants where people “did runners”, they explain.
Mr. Kam said: “Some properties and apartments are in a state of wondering if they can be rented again.”
But sometimes it’s a rewarding job to know that the duo have changed someone’s life better.
Cam recalls:
“Because of Covid, her social workers couldn’t visit, so she had to put all the trash on her concrete balcony.
“It was full of garbage bags, swill, and all sorts of things. There must have been at least 100 bags out there for up to 16 months.”
Ori and Kam described the scent of the balcony as “quite harsh,” but added that they would be happy to help those in need.
“It wasn’t long before the trash bags started to break down and the liquid from them splattered on our arms and legs,” Ori said.
“Immortal” hut and WWII bomb shelter

In the two years of business, the boys had a lot of big work, such as zoos, private land, hotels, and so on.
But one of the most difficult things was to defeat the “little-destroyed” huts that were repeatedly reinforced.
“It was one of the jobs that couldn’t be withdrawn as easily as we first thought. It was crazy,” Cam explained.
“An elderly customer with dementia used to work as a mechanical engineer. He layered all parts of the hut in three layers of brick, metal and bolts.
“Every time he strengthened it, it became stronger, hardly destroyed, and even Storm Eunice survived.”
Another difficult task was to knock down the occultation of the former World War II, which took about three days to destroy.
“We appeared with some hammers and thought there was an easy and light demolition task in our hands,” Ori said.
“There was nothing wrong with it. Cam was so painful that I couldn’t move for three days after we finished.”
