Tear Gas and Pepper Spray Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Greenfield, MA

Why do vinegar and bleach not work?

Tear gas and pepper spray are not ordinary germs or stains. Vinegar and bleach do not neutralize them, and mixing products can create dangerous fumes. Use fresh air and let a crew handle it.

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.

Do I need to be at the property?

Usually not. Many owners set up access by phone through a key holder or manager. Tell the team who has the keys and whether a business must stay open around the work.

Is the space safe for pets and children afterward?

Only after it is cleaned and checked. Pets and young children are closer to floors, so they can be affected more. Keep them out until the crew says the work is complete.

Will the neighbors know?

Cleanup can be done discreetly. Ask about unmarked vehicles and quiet work practices when you call. Crews do not discuss the job with others.

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.
