Teargas Cleanup in Kansas City
Removing What You Can’t See—Safely and Completely
When teargas is deployed by law enforcement or accidentally discharged, the aftermath can be overwhelming. Tear gas usually appears as a fine powder, but can be invisible to the eye. Tear gas can be harmful without personal protective equipment (PPE). It seeps into walls, ventilation systems, carpets, and porous surfaces—leaving behind a burning sensation, intense odor, and potential long-term health risks if not properly removed. At Crime Scene Cleaners, we specialize in the professional remediation of teargas and chemical irritants. Our trained, certified technicians follow strict decontamination protocols to ensure that the affected environment is restored to a safe, breathable, and habitable condition. Because no one should be victimized twice.
Why Professional Teargas Cleanup Is Necessary
- Lingers in the air and settles into soft surfaces
- Cannot be cleaned with standard household products
- Reactivates when exposed to moisture or heat
- Teargas, being a fine dust particle, can be stirred up into the air just by walking through a contaminated area.
- Causes eye, skin, and respiratory irritation even days later If not fully neutralized, these particles pose ongoing health risks, especially for children, the elderly, pets, and individuals with respiratory conditions like asthma.
- Cleaning is accomplished using industry-proprietary chemicals to neutralize residues after remediation, with a HEPA Vacuum and removal of items that are impossible to remediate without cross-contamination to the remaining structure.
