No, and it is not advised. Cleanup involves health risks and can be hard emotionally. Professional crews handle it so the family does not have to see or touch the affected area.
Not the police or the medical examiner. They investigate and release the scene. Cleanup is a separate job for professional biohazard crews, hired by the property owner, a family member or a landlord.
It should be left to professionals. Blood and body fluids carry bloodborne pathogens and often soak deeper than they look. A crew contains the area, removes contaminated materials, disinfects and treats odor.
Specialized homicide cleaners do. Police and investigators gather evidence and then leave. After the scene is released, the owner, family or estate can book a homicide cleanup crew to remove the hazards.
Cleanup can be done discreetly. Ask about unmarked vehicles and quiet work practices when you call. Crews do not discuss the job with others.
Ask what training the crew has, how waste is disposed of, what records you get and how privacy is protected. A good company explains each step in plain words and answers questions before work starts.
Answered 24/7 with patience and no pressure.
