Crime and Trauma Scene Biohazard Remediation
Statistically, residents of the United States are more likely to be exposed to crime through media coverage or through personal contact discussion. There are those that unfortunately are directly affected by crime and trauma events.
According to the FBI Supplementary Homicide Reports from 1976 to 2005, homicides are most often committed with guns. And the gun most used in a homicide is a handgun. Teens and young adults victimized by homicide are more likely to have a gun involved than homicides of persons in other age groups.
The Bureau of Justice Statistics’ (BJS) mission is to collect, analyze, publish, and disseminate information on crime, criminal offenders, victims of crime, and the operation of justice systems at all levels of government. A series of statistics from the BJS that is very disturbing are those associated with weapon use in violent crime.
In 2005, 24% of violent crime incidents had a weapon present. Also in 2005, violent crime offenders had or used a weapon in 48% of all robberies, 22% of all aggravated assaults, and 7% of all rapes and sexual assaults.
Property crime accounts for more than three-quarters of all crime in the United States. Those living in rented property are affected more by crime, regardless of the type of crime. In 2005, residents in rented property experienced 192 property crimes per 1,000 households, while those who own their homes experienced 137 property crimes per 1,000 households (BJS).

Biological Cleaning Services
Once the emergency responders such as the police and coroners leave the scene of the crime or traumatic event, the family or property owner is facing the unimaginable responsibility of the remediation of the affected environment. The task assigned to these first responders is to perform the investigation protocol and remove the deceased should a death be involved.
The police and the coroner are not responsible for the biological material left behind. Depending on the violence associated with the event, the remaining biological material will vary in concentration and distribution.
Obviously, this task is for a professional company who specializes in these OSHA and EPA compliant services. This service is not just a part of a wide collection of diversified services. Biological remediation is our primary business.
