When most people think of a crime scene in Auburndale, Brandon, Clearwater, Lakeland, St. Petersburg, Tampa, FL, and the surrounding areas, they often think of one or more people that were shot dead. While this can sometimes be the case, crime scenes can also consist of drug labs, unattended deaths, vehicle contaminations, and more. At American Family Bioclean, we can address all of these crime scene cleanups with our specialized training, tools, and equipment. And what many people don’t think about is the liability that they may be exposing themselves to if they don’t bring in a professional cleaning team. Improper cleaning of a crime scene can cause biohazards like dried blood to linger and could cause people to become infected with various blood borne pathogens inadvertently. Don’t take chances when it comes to your property and the exposure you may have with customers and others in the public. Contact us right away whenever you have need of professional crime scene cleanup.
Dealing With the Aftermath of Dead Bodies
Whether it happens from a homicide, an unattended death, or a suicide, dealing with the aftermath of a dead body is what makes the situation a biohazard. Blood and other bodily fluids are spilled in an area, and these can seep into all manner of materials, from linens, rugs, and carpeting to wood floors, walls, and more. In a way we are detectives following clues to ensure that all traces of biohazardous material is found and properly dealt with.
While dead bodies present their own challenges, there are other times when we are called upon to deal with a drug lab situation. These involve chemicals that can cause harm if touched or even if the fumes are breathed in. We have respirators that we wear in these cases along with gloves and other protective gear, and we require anyone else to wear the same, including law enforcement that may be investigating a case.
Vehicles Can Also Be Part of a Crime Scene
While not often thought of, vehicles can be part of a crime scene that will also need to be cleaned. It might be a vehicle that was in the area and was splattered with blood, or it might even be an ambulance that has a lot of blood that needs to be cleaned out properly before it can be used again in order to protect the workers as well as future patients riding in it. When it comes to crime scenes and anything dealing with dead bodies, it is best to call in our professional cleaning team.
