Saying goodbye to loved ones is not easy. Sometimes it happens that they die suddenly, before they even get home. In such a case, please remember that the apartment should be thoroughly cleaned. This is all because if a body stays in the apartment for some time, it begins to decompose and with it secrete fluids and intense, unpleasant odors that are difficult to get rid of. What should you do?
Cleaning up after the dead. Where to start?
Before you take any action, you need to remember about appropriate clothes. The idea is to protect the respiratory tract by wearing clothing that covers the body, gloves and a protective mask. Cleaning should start with disinfection and thorough washing of all surfaces. Don’t miss the floors, walls or windows. Then start washing the carpets – such surfaces are usually a habitat for dirt, bacteria and mites, which should be removed if someone has recently died in the apartment.

It is worth remembering to dispose of items found in the room where the death occurred or which were covered with body fluids. You can give other things to people in need or to family as a souvenir of the deceased.
Cleaning up after deaths. When to call a cleaning company?
If the deceased’s body has been lying in the apartment for a long time and has significantly decomposed, or you are simply unable to clean it due to emotional reasons, call specialists for help. Such people often have the appropriate chemicals, and their knowledge and experience will help you quickly deal with the problem. Additionally, they will also pay attention to what in the apartment is no longer suitable for use and what requires more serious renovation due to the death of a loved one.
