Just to look at Blood can be so gruesome, and to see someone lie in a pool of blood will surely cause shivers across our body.

A question often arises as to who does this blood clean-up often seen at a crime or an accident scene?

The BasicsCrime-scene clean-up is categorized within the cleaning industry and is referred as  CTS Decon -- crime and trauma scene decontamination; which involves cleaning up hazardous material.

Whenever there is a death in a house due to a crime or suicide, the folks of the deceased normally don’t get out of the house. So generally it is a job for a bio-hazard cleaner to dispose off the hazardous matter associated with the incident.

The Government issues Federal regulations and in these regulations, all bodily fluids are categorized as biohazards, which leaves to a conclusion that any blood stain or a tissue at a crime or accident scene is a possible source of infection. Special knowledge is necessary to handle bio-hazardous material in an appropriate manner and also to know what exactly to look for at a crime scene.

Professional cleaners may come from medical fields which is in the same line with that as a crime scene cleaner (constant exposure to blood and human remains). Some maybe from a construction background which is helpful too, because some clean-ups (especially meth labs) require walls and built-in structures to be removed.

Regardless of background, any crime-scene cleaner

needsat least three qualities: • A strong stomach• The ability to

emotionally detach from his work

• A sympathetic nature

Why sympathetic? - Because cleaning up a

crime scene has one very big difference from cleaning up hazardous waste - say a meth lab i.e. grieving family members! Family members of the deceased are present at the site of cleaning, seeing the cleaners lift tissue remains and clean blood splashed on the walls.

Crime-scene cleaners are in the awkward position of having to be stoic in the face of stomach-churning physical remains and yet sensitive in the face of a family's tragedy. Not everyone can do both.

Crime-scene cleaners handle a wide variety of messy situations, each of which carries its own dangers and particularly nauseating characteristics.
