UNATTENDED DEATH CLEANUP
CHARLESTON CRIME SCENE CLEANUP
The cleanup for an unattended death may be even more tough than a crime scene or suicide. In this instance the body is frequently not found right away, but only following a number of days or weeks. In decomposition, the body swells, maggots move in, the organs digest themselves and the skin turns to liquid. It isn’t nice, but most people will tell you that the sight of a decomposing body cannot compare to the odor it puts off. The coroner removes the body as it’s falling apart because of the decomposition, then it’s time for the crime scene cleanup to begin. Human decomposition will leave behind plenty of blood and body fluids, so the odor and maggots will be on the scene as well. As well as cleaning up the blood and bodily fluids on the scene, sometimes crime scene cleaners must find and dispose of any maggots that crawl out from the body and try to keep from being destroyed, since they are carrying germs and could be carrying diseases like AIDS, HEP-C, and HIV.
When human decomposition happens, the blood and other fluids will travel through the carpet and into the flooring. You will then have to cut the carpet and remove the hardwood flooring that the fluids have soaked into. Getting rid of the decomp smell is another tough task to do. Decomposition can be really hard to get rid of with water and bleach. You have to remove the source and then use special equipment and purifiers to clean the air from odor contaminants.
