When a violent death occurs in someone's home as a crime scene cleanup, the family typically doesn't move out of the house. The crime scene cleaner's job is to remove any sign of what happened and any biohazards that result from such an incident. Federal regulations deem all bodily fluids to be biohazards, so any blood or tissue at a crime scene is considered a potential source of infection. You need special knowledge to safely handle biohazardous material and to know what to look for at the scene - for instance, if there's a thumbnail-size bloodstain on the carpet, there's a good chance that there's a 2-foot-diameter bloodstain on the floorboards underneath it. You can't just clean the carpet and call it a day.
In the case of a trauma scene cleanup, there are bodily fluids to deal with, each tiny drop carrying germs, bacteria and, possibly, infectious diseases. In something like a crime scene clean up related to a suicide where a person cuts his wrists or shoots himself in the head, there's tons of blood; if someone is shot in the chest, though, there's very little blood because the lungs suck it in. But no matter how much of it there is, our crime scene cleanup crews have to approach it as if it were carrying Bloodborne pathogens like HIV, hepatitis, herpes, E. Cole and hantavirus.
To deal with crime scene cleanup pathogens and biohazardous material you will want to have a licensed professional to take care of this serious issue. To professionally complete a crime scene cleanup of a messy homicide, suicide, accidental death or undiscovered death and restore the area to its previous state can take anywhere from an hour to 40 hours. It all depends on the "degree of trauma" and the amount of biohazardous material at the site. In many cases with your description we can provide an accurate estimate over the phone or have someone there quickly to look at what the exact crime scene cleanup situation is.
