Odor usually fades once all the source material is gone. If blood soaked into porous materials, those materials are removed and the area is treated. Strong smells can mean contamination remains beneath the surface.
Blood cleanup covers any spill, from an accident or a medical event. Crime scene cleanup is the larger job after a violent crime and often includes blood, bodily fluids and other residue. The safety rules are the same.
Crime scene cleaners wear protective gear, contain the area, remove soaked porous materials and lift blood from hard surfaces. They then disinfect with EPA-registered products and haul the waste away. The goal is to remove the hazard, not just the stain.
Surface stains may lift, but blood that soaked through carpet and padding can sit in the subfloor and keep carrying germs and odor. In that case the soaked carpet and padding are cut out and disposed of as waste.
At a home, the owner or the family usually pays. At a rental or a business, the landlord, property owner or employer often gets the cleanup done. In a rental, the lease and local law decide, and a landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say.
Use disposable gloves, eye protection, disposable absorbent towels and a disinfectant that is EPA-registered for bloodborne pathogens. Follow the label for how long the surface must stay wet. Bag the used materials and keep them away from other people.
One call starts the cleanup, disinfection and disposal.
