Forensic cleaning services are typically required after events like homicides, suicides, unattended deaths, industrial accidents, hoarding situations, and biohazard spills such as blood or bodily fluid contamination.

Forensic cleaning goes beyond regular cleaning by addressing biohazards, bloodborne pathogens, and other potentially dangerous substances. It requires specialized training, equipment, and adherence to strict safety protocols.

Forensic cleaning technicians wear personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, masks, and suits to protect themselves from biohazards. They also use specialized cleaning agents and equipment designed for decontamination.

The duration of forensic cleaning depends on the size of the affected area, the severity of contamination, and the specific circumstances of the incident. A professional assessment is usually conducted to provide an accurate estimate of the time required.
