What Unattended Death Cleanup Means for a Corona, New York, NY Home

Decomposition cleanup is the removal of the fluids and residue that follow when a person is not found for several days. It also covers the odor, which can spread through floors, walls and vents.

What should I not do after finding a death at home?

Call 911 first and do not touch anything. Do not try to clean fluids yourself, because they can carry germs. Do not vacuum or use household bleach. Wait for the authorities, then ask a cleanup team how to proceed.
