Tear Gas and Pepper Spray Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Clinton, IA

Why does the air system matter?

If the heating or cooling system ran, it may have pulled irritant particles into vents and ducts and moved them to other rooms. Crews isolate and clean the system so residue does not spread again.

What if police used the tear gas?

Ask the agency what records it can give you. A police report number is often useful for insurance. Cleanup can start once the agency says the property can be entered.

What if my eyes or skin burn?

Follow first aid guidance and get medical help if symptoms continue. If anyone has trouble breathing, call 911. This page covers property cleanup, not treatment.

What should I do first after tear gas is released?

Get to fresh air, take others and pets with you, and keep everyone out of the space. Do not hose it down or mix cleaning products. If anyone has trouble breathing, call 911 or Poison Control.

How long does tear gas residue last in a home?

It depends on the agent, the room and the surfaces. Some residue fades in a few days, while some types cling to fabrics and carpet much longer. If burning returns when you go back in, the residue is still there.

What is the difference between tear gas and pepper spray?

Tear gas is a group of irritant agents, usually fine solids, such as CS, CN and CR. Pepper spray, or OC, is made from chili pepper extract in an oil base. They behave differently, so cleanup methods differ.
