Remove child devices with App

Is there an event that occurs when an app is being removed? I'd like to delete the child devices and other such clean up.

def uninstalled() {
	removeChildDevices(getChildDevices())
}

private removeChildDevices(delete) {
	delete.each {deleteChildDevice(it.deviceNetworkId)}
}
