Removing the Smell of Death From a Desert Aire, WA Property

Death odor removal is separate from biohazard cleanup, though the two often go together. Biohazard cleanup removes contamination, and odor control makes sure the smell does not linger in what is left.

In Desert Aire, families, landlords, realtors and property managers can get death odor cleanup with one call to Desert Aire Biohazard Cleanup Help. Crews wear protective gear, remove affected materials and treat the air in your property across Grant County.

Drier air in Desert Aire, with about 8 inches of rain a year, does not cure a death odor. The smell stays in carpet and subfloor until the source is removed. About 12% of homes in Grant County are vacant, and a smell inside a closed house may go unnoticed until a neighbor or an owner stops by.

What decomposition & death odor removal covers:

  • Containment so odor and contamination stay out of other rooms
  • Final check of the air and surfaces before the space is handed back
  • Packaging and hauling of biohazard waste to lawful disposal
  • Treatment or sealing of subfloor and other porous building materials
