Common Crime Scene Contaminates
4/19/2020 (Permalink)
No matter how many forensic TV shows we’ve seen, leaving the crime scene clean-up to the professionals is the best route to take for both your health and safety. After the police have finished processing a crime or accident scene, the cleaning and restoration process can begin. Many times, crime and accident scenes have biohazard contaminants that pose a serious health risk.
One example of a crime scene contaminant is forensic residue. Forensic investigators use a variety of different materials and substances to conduct their investigations, such as fingerprint dust. SERVPRO of Bryan, Effingham, McIntosh, and East Liberty Counties is responsible for ensuring that these substances do not remain at the site. We also handle bodily fluids. The fluids pose a health risk if they are not handled properly, and witnesses should not attempt to remove them from the crime site.
SERVPRO of Bryan, Effingham, McIntosh, and East Liberty Counties will respond immediately and has the specialized training, protective equipment and experience to safely clean trauma and crime scenes.
