According to the F.B.I., there were 16,912 homicides in 2005 in the United States and according to the Los Angeles County Sherriff's department 2006 censure, there were 402 in Los Angeles County. Homicides are unfortunate events that need to be cleaned up by trained professionals. Caldecon provides the cleanup and disinfection of all homicide scenes, which include office buildings, stores, private homes and public areas. We are discreet and it is our policy to never discuss such scenes with the public or media.
A usual crime scene is processed by the homicide department, detectives, forensic units and other law enforcement related scientists. Sometimes they use special chemicals like fingerprint dust to process a crime scene. Cleaning fingerprint dust is nearly impossible for the layman and requires special tools and methods. Caldecon knows how to clean these scenes.
Most people don't realize that law enforcement agencies and emergency responders (ambulance, firefighter and EMT's) do not clean up the blood and tissue that is left at the crime scene. Homeowners and victims are left with these disasterous scenes which can be full of bloodborne and airborne pathogens. Often times we see bandages, blood, needles and tissue splatter that needs to be removed and disinfected. Blood is not easy to clean and is also not safe to clean by someone who is not experienced or informed of bloodborne / airborne pathogens. (Bloodborne pathogens are viruses or bacteria that are carried in blood or air such as HIV, HBV (hepatitis B), HCV (hepatitis C), Herpes, E.coli and hantavirus.
