Decomposition odor control is the final stage of death cleanup, once contaminated materials are gone. It uses sealing, deodorizing and air treatment to remove what is left in the structure.

  • Removal of carpet, padding, mattresses and furniture that hold the smell
  • Guidance on repairs such as flooring, drywall or paint after odor source removal
  • Final check of the air and surfaces before the space is handed back

Will the neighbors know about the cleanup?

Crews work quietly and handle the job with discretion. Ask about arrival and parking details when you call. If a landlord needs to notify other tenants, that decision belongs to the landlord.

What methods remove death odor?

Teams use a mix of source removal, disinfection, sealing and air treatment. Equipment can include ozone generators, hydroxyl units, thermal foggers and air scrubbers. Which method fits depends on how far the smell has spread and what the surfaces are made of.

Is decomposition odor harmful?

The smell can cause nausea, headaches and dizziness in a closed space. The larger concern is the fluids behind it, which can carry germs. If you must enter, ventilate and limit your time. Do not touch fluids, and leave if you feel unwell.
