Here at Urban Environmental, we know the impact that a crime scene can have in a home, and it is part of the reason that our expert staff members specialise in quick clean-ups. In this blog, we are going to look at why a fast clean-up is essential, and some of the environmental factors that homeowners may not even be aware of could affect them.
Why it is important
After a violent crime or death, the scene itself is a danger to both the occupants of the home and the first responders. Blood stains and other bodily fluids could transmit diseases through transfer, and other odours could start wreck havoc to your respiratory system. These fluids and smells have to be taken care of quickly, and a fast-acting crime scene clean-up company can help eradicate issues before they arise.
As well, if you try and clean this space yourself, you may have some issues as typical home cleaners do not have the power to remove the blood and other bodily fluids from carpet for instance. However, when you trust Urban Environmental, you are getting one of the best crime scene clean-up companies in the Vancouver area, and we know what we are doing.
Safety First
Many homeowners do not realise the dangers that a crime scene can hold, but the key to a proper clean-up is speed and efficiency.
Blood
Blood and other fluids are great incubators of diseases and other pathogens, and although it might look like it is dried and no longer a threat, as soon as you add water from your cleaning solution it re-energises. Proper cleaning methods are needed, as are industrial strength cleaners to truly neutralise the threat and create a safe space inside the home.
Bodily Fluids
Bodily fluids are never something that you want to deal with on your own, and for the team, at Urban Environmental, they are one of the most dangerous parts of the job. These fluids can contain hepatitis, pathogens or other diseases that could cause significant issues for homeowners. This is why we always suggest that professionals handle blood or bodily fluid clean-ups in homes!
