Death Odor Removal Frequently Asked Questions in Warm Beach, WA

Is decomposition odor harmful?

The smell can cause nausea, headaches and dizziness in a closed space. The larger concern is the fluids behind it, which can carry germs. If you must enter, ventilate and limit your time. Do not touch fluids, and leave if you feel unwell.

Can I use air fresheners, vinegar or baking soda?

They may cover the smell for a short time, but they do not reach fluids in padding or subfloor. Household products also leave the contamination behind. Source removal and professional treatment are what end the odor.

Do I need to be at the property?

Usually not. Ask the team how keys and access can be arranged. A landlord, property manager or representative can often meet the crew. You can ask the team to set aside keepsakes and papers for you.

How do you get the smell of a dead body out of a house?

The smell is removed by removing what holds it. A team takes out soaked carpet, padding and furniture, cleans and disinfects hard surfaces, treats and often seals the subfloor, then runs air treatment equipment. Sprays and fans only cover the odor briefly.

What safety standards do crews follow?

Workers who handle blood and body fluids are covered by the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030. It calls for protective equipment, safe handling and proper disposal. Ask any team what training it has and how it disposes of waste.

What causes the smell of decomposition?

It comes from gases and fluids released as tissue breaks down. The fluids soak into carpet, padding, mattresses and the floor beneath. The longer a person was in the home before being found, the more materials the fluids usually reached.
