Tear Gas and Pepper Spray Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Tatum, TX

What can be saved after tear gas?

Glass, metal, sealed wood and plastic often clean well. Washable fabrics may be saved depending on the agent. Carpet, padding, foam and mattresses are harder, and some must be removed. The crew sorts items with you.

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.

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.

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.

What rules apply to tear gas waste in Texas?

Rules for hazardous residue vary by state, county and city. Waste may need special handling and cannot always go in the regular trash. Ask the local health department or fire department what applies.

Can Texas victim compensation help with tear gas cleanup?

If a crime was involved, ask Texas Attorney General Crime Victim Services whether the case qualifies. The Texas Crime Victims' Compensation Program may pay up to $2,250 for crime scene clean-up for crimes after July 14, 2016. Call (800) 983-9933.
