Questions About the Smell of Death in a Marshall School, Sacramento, CA Home

What methods remove death odor?

Teams use a mix of source removal, disinfection, sealing and air treatment. Equipment can include ozone generators, hydroxyl units, thermal foggers and air scrubbers. Which method fits depends on how far the smell has spread and what the surfaces are made of.

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.

Does warm weather make the odor worse?

Yes. Heat speeds the changes behind the odor and makes it stronger and wider spreading. A closed home with the air conditioning off can hold a strong smell. The steps stay the same, but acting soon after the scene is released helps.

What should I ask a death odor removal company before hiring?

Ask how it finds the source, what it removes and what equipment it uses. Ask how it disposes of waste, what the price includes and what happens if a smell remains after treatment.

How long does the smell of death last?

It lasts until the source is removed. Fluids in carpet, padding and subfloor give off odor for weeks or longer, and warm weather makes it stronger. Opening windows helps for a short time. A cleanup team removes the source and treats the air.

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.
