Yes. Mice and rats can enter ductwork and leave droppings there, and the heating and cooling system can then move dust and odor through the house. Cleanup may include treating vents and duct openings.
Disinfectants can inactivate the virus, which is why droppings are soaked before they are wiped up. The method matters as much as the product. Follow label directions and never mix cleaners.

Often yes, with protection. Open doors and windows first, wear gloves and a mask, wet the droppings with disinfectant, wipe them up and seal them in a bag. If the area is large, hard to reach or heavily soiled, call a team.
It can be if the droppings are dry and dusty. Sweeping or vacuuming can send fine particles into the air, where they are easy to breathe in. Wet cleaning with protection is safer, and larger jobs are best left to a cleanup team.
