Decomposition Odor FAQ for Wheeler, TX: Causes, Cost and Timing

I smell something and I am afraid of what I will find. What should I do?

Do not go in alone. Call 911 or ask for a welfare check. Wait for the authorities to enter first. Cleanup comes later, once the scene is released. If you are struggling with what you have seen, 988 offers support by call or text.

Can I sell or rent a home after the smell was removed?

Yes, once it has been cleaned and any repairs are done. Questions about what must be disclosed are best answered by a real estate attorney or agent. A cleanup team can provide records of the work.

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.

Do carpets and furniture have to be thrown away?

Porous items that absorbed fluids, such as carpet, padding, mattresses and upholstery, are usually removed. Hard items can often be cleaned and disinfected. The team explains which is which before work begins.

Do I need to be at the property?

Usually not. Ask the team how keys and access can be arranged. A landlord, property manager or representative can often meet the crew. You can ask the team to set aside keepsakes and papers for you.

What safety standards do crews follow?

Workers who handle blood and body fluids are covered by the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030. It calls for protective equipment, safe handling and proper disposal. Ask any team what training it has and how it disposes of waste.
