Tear Gas Cleanup Services in Oklahoma
Teargas penetrates and sticks to every surface, to remove it you need a tear gas professional.
Steri-Clean has provided thorough and efficient tear gas cleanup services for more than 20 years. Through our experience we have developed proprietary methods to procedurally remove the oily residue left by tear gas and restore the area to a habitable condition in a timely manner. Our technicians are given hands on training by industry experts using state of the art equipment to perform this task.
When deployed, teargas disperses to fill the entire volume of the structure. Its oily residue can be found in cabinets, under appliances, in air vents, and every crevice. This oil can not be broken down by household or industrial solvents and cleaners. Steri-Clean Oklahoma uses a neutralizer that was developed for the specific purpose of breaking down and neutralizing residual tear gas.
Tear gas remediation can not wait, residual oil will continue to disperse until it is neutralized and removed.
The oily residue which settles on all horizontal surfaces will continue to “off-gas” periodically. The longer teargas is left untreated, the deeper it penetrates surfaces. Cleaning with other household and chemicals can make matters worse by allowing the residual oil to soak further into the porous materials around which it has settled. For these reasons it is imperative to have the scene professionally treated as soon as possible any time that teargas has been deployed.
Materials which are porous absorb teargas oil and will likely have to be removed. The yellow or pink oil’s properties allow it to penetrate deep into materials such as wood and dry wall. It is necessary to remove all drywall in the direct vicinity of the deployment, and often, the oil can be absorbed by dry wall well outside of the immediate area.
If these porous materials are left, they will continue off-gas regardless of the chemical used to treat the surface. The residual oil beneath the surface will escape even after painting and sealing the material.
Steri-Clean is trusted by law enforcement and has partnered with police departments, prison staff, and first responders across the country.
Established in 1995, Steri-Clean has been serving in the specialty cleaning and removing of hazardous substances for long enough to build a reputation. From Southern California to Maine, we are trusted by police departments and first responders to provide efficient hazard-cleaning services. These not only includes teargas, but blood, feces, vomit, decomposition fluids, and all other forms of biohazardous materials.
In situations where teargas is deployed, emergency vehicles like police cars and ambulances are often affected. Steri-Clean Oklahoma’s on-call technicians offer 24/7 emergency cleaning of vehicles and equipment to police and first responders to get you back on the road.
Jails and prison facilities are also among those who may need semi-regular cleaning where teargas has been deployed. We offer these same 24/7 on call emergency services to local detention facilities as well as weekly, monthly, and bi-monthly cleaning of evidence lockers and holding cells.
The bottom line is this: If teargas has been deployed in your home or other facility, you cannot afford to wait, and you cannot afford to cut corners.
Teargas is dangerous and can be life threatening to people with asthma or lung disease. The longer the residual oil lingers on the surface, the deeper it soaks in. The wrong service will only make matters worse. Steri-Clean has over 20 years of professional experience cleaning and neutralizing scenes of teargas deployment, and we are on call now.
