Persistent odors can remain after a crime scene, unattended death, decomposition, or other biohazard incident. Odors may linger even after visible contamination has been removed, especially when affected materials are involved. Carpet, upholstery, flooring, drywall, and furnishings can absorb biological substances and continue to release odors over time.

Odors after a traumatic event can come from biological contamination, decomposition, and materials that absorb these substances. These sources can affect surfaces and furnishings, allowing odors to remain even after basic cleaning.
Decomposition
Decomposition can create persistent odors that spread beyond the immediate area, especially when a person has remained undiscovered for an extended period.
Porous Materials
Biological substances can soak into flooring, upholstery, wood, drywall, mattresses, and other absorbent surfaces, where odors may remain after surface cleaning.
Retained Odors
Carpet, upholstery, mattresses, and other items may retain odors when they cannot be adequately cleaned and require removal.
Hidden Sources
Contamination beneath flooring, within materials, or in less visible areas may cause odors to remain after surface cleaning.
Professional deodorization may be needed when persistent odors remain after a crime scene, unattended death, decomposition event, or other biohazard incident. Common situations include:
Air fresheners and household odor products may temporarily cover an odor without removing its source. If contamination remains, the odor can return after the fragrance fades.
Expert deodorization targets odors that remain after cleanup. Trauma Scene Cleaners cleans affected surfaces, removes materials that cannot be adequately cleaned, and uses specialized deodorization methods suited to the situation.
Unattended deaths can create persistent odors when decomposition affects flooring, furniture, walls, and other porous materials. Our unattended death cleanup services tackle the broader contamination and cleanup needs in these situations.
Crime scenes may also leave odors from blood, bodily fluids, and other biological contamination. After authorities release the property for cleanup, our technicians address contamination and affected materials before applying appropriate cleaning, disinfection, and deodorization methods.
