I am a CSI and have to work all those nasty scenes but I always say I feel for those who are coming behind me to clean up. I thank you for your service.
I must say, as a CSI, you have one of the most interesting jobs on the planet. I’m quite certain that you have seen your fair share of these…much respect ✊!
I know this is genuinely a heart breaking situation, but I can't help but laugh at the fact you guys manage to still be hungry despite dealing with this
I say this with a caring heart: please train the employees to wear hearing protection and respiration protection when cutting/disturbing drywall, tile, bio, etc.
I'm a retired crime scene investigator from a major Metropolitan city, and worked over 800 unnatural deaths in the course of a career. Despite all I've seen, I wouldn't work the job these private cleaners do. You wouldn't believe the crap they have to wade in. When finished, we can leave... their ordeal just begins.
This was a hard one to watch, not much turns my stomach but it’s just something about maggots that make my stomach do flips. I’ve said it before and I will say it again, you guys are awsome at what you do, no matter how bad the scene is you get the job done so hats off to you.
I AGREE 👍 💯 I don't mind getting down and dirty with many messes, but those maggots truly make my stomach turn. I think I'd rather clean a sewage flood filled with poo 💩 to the max than these nasty nasty maggots 🤢 🤮 🤢 But if I had to, then I'd still do it though!
I'm glad I'm not alone. Seeing the maggots made me gag so bad. I couldn't finish the video. I had to fast forward the part when they were pulling up the tile and whatever that was he picked up
@@themindfulphilosopher32 how is that karma? would you rather some guy who didn't want kids to have them and either neglect them or leave them? what if he couldn't have kids bc he was sterile? dont be a dick.
may he rest in peace. it's always sad when people die suddenly and aren't found until they're unrecognizable. despite how (wonderfully) disgusting this video was, i can find solace in the fact that you helped restore this man's dignity and made sure his family didn't have to clean up the remains of their loved one. and wow. that's a lot of maggots!
I’m a nurse and I’ve seen some pretty messy things in my life, so it takes a lot for me to turn away. I could have helped clean this mess but for the maggots. I had to FF thru that part. That part I could not do. Bless you all for taking this on and helping any family members to move on with their lives.
Nurse here too! Yep we see some stuff alright! You certainly build up a strong stomach! However nursing a man with gangrene once dressing his almost falling off foot, got me gagging. I felt so so bad for him it must have been so incredibly painful and degrading :(
Hello my sister nurses! I'm a retired critical care RN. I have seen & done some interesting things these last 42 years. These ppl have my respect & my admiration. Thet are kind & compassionate when speaking about the victim or his family. Compassion & the ability to feel & show it is so important both in the jobs you ladies & I have done and in the jobs the heroes in this video do. I saw a documentary, might've been on Netflix, anyway was about a guy in LA who runs a decomp company. NOT a Spalding franchise. He was the most awful human being! The comments he made about the victims, his girlfriend, the ppl who worked for him, his competitors & everybody else he came in contact w/ were so unbelievably awful. He was a sociopath, I suspect & it broke my heart for the families of these ppl who had died as well as the dead themselves. He did not do his job w/ a loving heart. Having been a big Spalding fan, I was utterly shocked & so.angry that if I could've figured out who to complain to I would have! Anyhow, Peace ladies. Enjoy what you're doing & always lead w/ a compassionate & loving heart!
It must have been really horrible to be the first person to walk in and find the body. I couldn't do that job because I know I would throw up. I've smelled really bad human decomp before. I used to work a hospital as a transcriptionist for the pathology department. Our office was around the corner from the morgue. It was 90+ degrees and a person died at home and not found for a while. The medical examiner's office has a separate facility and the body was not supposed to be brought to our morgue. I will never forget taking a break and walking out of the office. The smell was the absolute worst. I applaud you all for being able to deal with it.
Ive never truly gagged at a video before this one. I tend to have a pretty tough stomach to this kind of thing. But The piles of maggots mixed with the decomp just got me 🤢 that poor person! You guys are amazing for doing this job. People dont give enough credit to you all.
I thought i had the smelliest job ever in a fish factory, even with maggots. You're all heroes and deserve a lot of respect. It must be the worst occupation only because it's a fellow human being not just an animal or what have you. Great work, thanks for sharing. Keep safe.
I really really wanna do this! I know of people who haven’t been able to afford a cleanup after a loved one passes and that’s what I wanna do to help! Start a cleanup business that somehow aids victims families financially with cleanups. You guys are amazing and I learn so much from you!
That is my plan as soon as my son can stay home alone! I clean flip houses, do pest control and mold remediation currently.. But with bio you have to be on call which is the only thing stopping me from starting the business now. Are you anywhere close to Maryland 🤔😁
I run a home cleaning service and know pretty much what this entails. This is like cleaning homes except there is no property owner to guide you on what they want done. You have to go in wearing haz mat suits and you need very powerful cleaning products. Plus, you need to be able to handle seeing maggots, body tissues and flesh. Most of the stuff cleaned off needs to be disposed of in haz mat tanks. You can do it if you can handle the gory stuff. I would but I prefer socializing with my clients and coming home not having to worry that a maggot may have gotten into my stuff. Lots of work but I'm sure the money is good.
If I didn’t have such a weak stomach(gagging over hardened ketchup and dead bugs that aren’t even squished)I would love to help this way too! I’m fine watching it on RUclips but if I was there and saw(and SMELLED)it in person it would be a different story!
I have a suggestion for you on your clean ups, they sell a pop-up frame that holds trash bags up and open, mostly used for helping you on raked leaves, but this way someone doesnt have the risk of getting bodily fluids on them due to holding a bag open. Another suggestion would be to use a squeegee to get the mass of the fluid into locations where it's easier to pick up, perhaps with dust pans, that would help you when maggots are present, but would definitely speed your clean up process, so you can get to the point of disinfecting much quicker. Hope this helps. Thanks, VL
Good advice, seeing them trying to wipe up the gallons of goo with a couple wadded up paper towels was driving me nuts. Great videos though, thanks for sharing!
I'm pretty sure they would have to throw each and every squeegee out afterwards, constantly supplying new ones and trashing them wouldn't be worth it money wise not would it be environmentally friendly. Although a tough one I don't think it'd be worth it if that makes sense? Where I live it's actually illegal to take anything you got decomp on so we have to use disposable cleaning supplies. No idea if that's how it works there too, it's an experienced guess lmao
Oh my goodness so many maggots! Y’all are amazing for doing what you do 💕 Rest In Peace to the poor gentleman that passed away so unexpectedly and in such an unfortunate manner. I’m glad that y’all had extra hands on deck for this one cause just watching the parts you have shown us just makes me imagine how long and how much stuff had to be removed in the background 😬
Obviously I've never come across decomposition before but honestly just watching these, the smell seems to be the least of your worries. Seeing the fluids seeping everywhere and falling off the tissue makes me feel some type of way 🤢🤢🤢 you guys are incredible!
@@abbeyemerson8956 it usually don't bother me as well but that one part where she scooped up a whole pile of that blood and maggots on the paper towel and showed it close to the camera got me lol I had to turn my head. That's the one part where I was like omg 🤢🤢 I give them ALOT of credit cause I could NOT do that shit. Watching it is one thing but actually doing it... HELL NOOOO.
honestly as someone who used to have an almost paralyzing fear of death, these videos have helped me get over it. I don't think its worth being so scared of something you cant avoid
Thank goodness there are folks like you that provide this service as many of these folks just experienced the worst situation in their lives and most could never clean up after such an incident.
I am so glad you did the video the way you used to do it without all of the talking and interviewing. I'm from Indianapolis and I'm glad you're there. With the way crime has been lately you're definitely needed.
Also who knew that crime scene cleaners had to go through an entire renovation as well, I certainly didn't. Thank you for the video, we needed to see this, despite the maggots
@@johnnicholson9118 if they just ripped up the floor with all the bio on the tiles, they'd risk spattering it on the walls, toilet, etc., thus having to clean up even more
What would people do without you all to do the most unthinkable job that many can't or won't do? You have my utmost respect. I think if I watch this video several times, I may get used to the maggots. Is that even possible?
He seems to have kept a clean and orderly home...until this. No one wants strangers to see their home when it's messy, let alone when it contains the aftermath of your own decomposition. Saints preserve us from such an end.
@@LSD97123 To tell you the truth, now that I've thought about it, neither would i give a "rats' ass" or any other kind of ass. I hope to not be wake to what happens next! And, i am hoping there is Nothing else! because i'd really be sorry to have returned to this sorry assed life!
First of all, I had no idea such extensive work went into this, all the cleaning and demo! A massive job. Annndd I was also thinking some of those flies escaped and probably landed on someone's hamburger down the street after being in a decomposing body 😳 🤢🤮
I've missed your videos, glad to see you back. That was quite the messy job, and I've never seen so many maggots in my life. Awesome cleanup you-all. 👍👍👍👍👍
The maggots were creepy but all the oozy decomp and removal was amazing. That bathroom rug was awful! I had a property I manage with the worst case of german roaches, bed bugs, and hoarding I have ever seen, your guys in Kissimmee did an amazing job removing the hoard, filth, and mildew-infested cabinets. The pest control vendor is still treating it to eradicate the bugs.....Hats off to CSC!
i know that a lot of these stories of the deceased can't be shared because of confidentiality but wish you could. Back stories are really interesting. thanks
Just another wonderful job, guys. Respectfully and professionally done, as usual. Kinda always puts things in perspective. When you found the gentleman's watch, I think that for me would be harder than the maggots(well, the smell!!!)
Thank heaven there are people capable and willing to do this job. I can't even imagine how the family or landlord would possibly be able to clean up something like this.
This incredible mess can even become a bigger challenge! Imagine having to clean a place where a man has not only died but a week after, when the cleaners show up, he's found chewed up a tad and eaten by his 3 starving huskies? Not at all a pretty picture! You guys can handle with grace what i couldn't in a million years! More power to you!
@@BedfastSquid you would be surprised. I don't work for these guys but I'm the supervisor for another bio remediation service and I don't make but 23 dollars an.hour
I love it. When you’re watching you’re like oh yeah I can handle that…then you buy a franchise and you’re like oh crap! I’m sure much different in person with the smells and such. Especially as a newbie. Great job handling it guys!
I’m pretty sure I would’ve run to Target for a squeegee and dustpan before I would’ve cleaned those maggots up with a paper towel! Yikes. Seriously though, you all do really tough work and I love how your priority is always to help the families and loved ones of the deceased. (Also, of all the social media accounts I’ve seen, the comments here on your channel are by far the kindest and most compassionate. I don’t think I’ve seen one nasty comment so far and that’s impressive. Keep doing what you’re doing!)
I am having such a hard time stomaching this and don't appreciate you tainting Willy Wonka with this music 😂😂😂 You all are seriously amazing. Thank you for doing this truly intense job!
So glad this is not smell aviation. I had to clean up after my landlord when he died. It was nothing compared to this. The world is lucky to have people like you guys.
I'm from Southern Indiana. Good to know that there is a Spalding decon team setting up in indy sometime in the future. A close friend of mine had need of services like that a few years ago after her husband shot himself. So this hits home.
Love to hear a Spaulding Decon is going in Indy, my hometown. If I was younger and more physically able I would love a chance to do this for a living. Love watching as always. Keep up the great work!!
We use ozone generators in car rental, too. It works extremely well, but it is exceptionally dangerous and you have to keep the car locked up while it's running so no one can get in it. We air it out for a few minutes following, as well. It kills EVERYTHING, including you if you're inside while it's on.
Is there any particular reason why you aren't using stuff like sawdust to absorb large puddles of bio before scooping it up? It feels very finnicky to use so many paper towels by hand for large amounts of liquid.
@@jrpacer6355 I worked in asda as a cleaner, we would never have been allowed to scoop all that up with a paper towel, about time this cleaning firm bought some up to date equipment,
Im taking a forensic science class right now, and it's really enjoyable. this teaches me more stuff, so this helps with my class. I love this kind of stuff. I either want to be a Forensic pathologist or a vet tech. I'm on track for my high school graduation! worked all day on my forensic homework today. Got to learn some cool stuff.
the best way to have dealt with the maggots is use a squigee broom and get them in one area or corner and use a shovel , one or to may have escaped but you gutted the place anyways
I feel like spraying it with product and using a squeegee to move the death juice to a dust pan might work a little better than just moving it around with paper towels alone, but 🤷🏻♀️
@@davemoskot1776 Yeah, serious props to these people because there’s no way I could do that!! I watch Aurikatariina clean homes, and she uses a squeegee on the floors. Gave me the idea ☺️
Wow .. I always wonder why hair isn’t covered- can can imagine it would be very warm in Tampa but yet again I’ve seen other crime cleaners in colder weather !! I do you after but still ??? Great job btw. 💯💯😘
I know right ✅ I'd be worried some of these nasty maggots would get on my hair and uncovered skin. Why don't they wear head gear? Same thing with police officers who wear bullet proof vests but their heads are exposed. A shot to the head is devastating as well!
@@iGoddess unless you are a trained sniper its extremely difficult to shoot someone in the head. the chest is 2-3 times wider than the head, and thats why military and law enforcement wear plates
Also... the smell of decomp would be on their hair and skin!! It is a protein based molecule that actually attaches!! As a nurse, I have been around decomposed limbs... that smell goes HOME with you!!
6:30 Why do you guys not use some sort of scraper on that surface to just push it all together then scoop it all up? Seems like it would be quicker to just do that for the surface matter and maggots that you're wiping up. Layman perspective, would love to hear from the pros
@@CrimeSceneCleaning is that why they're just wearing kiddos rain boots, lol. I was cringing watching the one woman slipin and slidin in the maggot stew even more about that than the maggots.
I would hate finding out that happened in my home before I lived in it. I was thinking about this guy's family. That would be hard to come in after this to remove his belongings and knowing the decomp was bad. I'm glad there are people who do this
All of you do awesome work cleaning up. This is the first one I've watched and didn't know if I could finish. All the maggots made my skin crawl 😩, you do fabulous work
Hi Laura and Fiona, Omg It's been a while since I've watched A Decomposition Episode and it's like When I first started watching year's ago horrific. Your brain becomes desensitized to the content. Now it's like whoa... But I'm glad we get to watch these again. The way my brain comprehends These video's is the Soul Goes Home/Heaven and the Body stays behind. Well 20% of the Kind, Caring, Compassionate, Loving Soul's.. the other 80% of Evil Personified, Narcarcisstic, Cruel, Soulless Human being's Go Somewhere Else. Great Job Team.. Sending My Kindest Thoughts to you all and your families from Australia xx
I knew a guy who worked for Aftermath for a few months. Not his bag, He said he could not even look at rice for the rest of life. I know I could never do this job. Many can't. Very high turnover.
Please forgive me if you already have answered this question - I was wondering what happens to your footwear , tools and equipment etc. that comes in contact with the bio - Is there some sort of de-contamination process ya’ll go through post site clean up? Would love to hear commentary during the video describing what y’all do to keep your equipment safe.
I would think they use it for the day and toss them in with the hazmat trash. I wonder if the smell gets into their hair and they go home and their family probably can smell it off them and they probably take ten showers a day
This video made me extremely uncomfortable, not because it's disgusting but because of the reality. My father is in his late 60's, has heart problems, lives alone at least a 20min drive away from my house, and is terrible about keeping his phone charged. I really don't want him to end up like this...
This is the first one that got to me also. Just the amount of maggies!! YUK!! QUESTION: If you're removing the tile anyway. And it's going to BIO Refuse, why do you spend so much time cleaning it first?
you know, i watch these decomp cleanup videos all the time but this is the first that has actually made me gag....., whew, gotta hand it to the team for getting into it
I love how I am sitting here eating oatmeal while watching this🤣 I know exactly how Laura and Fiona feel about still being hungry despite the circumstance’s!
I've been watching your videos trying to figure out if I'd be able to handle being a crime scene cleanup person because it keeps popping up as job listings in my area. After careful consideration I'm pretty sure I'd be adding to the biohazard by losing my lunch over stuff like this. I don't know if I'd ever get used to it. I have so much respect for you guys and everyone who handles these jobs.

I thought the video was great! It was very interesting to see all those Maggie the maggots and what they do at a decomp.
@Corie Buchanan what’s a better word choice 🤣 I’ll take the feedback yo!

Nothing turns my stomach either. Smells do but I can’t smell this. I almost 🤢. This is the worst decomp I have ever seen done. Sorry for the loss

I’m glad that y’all had extra hands on deck for this one cause just watching the parts you have shown us just makes me imagine how long and how much stuff had to be removed in the background 😬
Obviously I've never come across decomposition before but honestly just watching these, the smell seems to be the least of your worries. Seeing the fluids seeping everywhere and falling off the tissue makes me feel some type of way 🤢🤢🤢 you guys are incredible!
You don't know until you smell it.
So nice to see Laura and Fiona on the job site again.
I used to get nauseous at even just the mention of maggots, but now my fear of them is gone thanks to Maggie! She's so cute and wiggly!
Here I am, eating breakfast while watching this as if it was a casual vlog.
You guys are amazing as always. I admire you so much ❤️
Same here lol I was thinking about that as I was making my food like am I really going to watch this well eating lol prob not a good idea
same! it doesnt gross me out one bit.
@@abbeyemerson8956 it usually don't bother me as well but that one part where she scooped up a whole pile of that blood and maggots on the paper towel and showed it close to the camera got me lol I had to turn my head. That's the one part where I was like omg 🤢🤢 I give them ALOT of credit cause I could NOT do that shit. Watching it is one thing but actually doing it... HELL NOOOO.
Me too

honestly as someone who used to have an almost paralyzing fear of death, these videos have helped me get over it. I don't think its worth being so scared of something you cant avoid
Other than the decomp, it looked like a well kept apartment. Thank you CSC for what you do.
Thank goodness there are folks like you that provide this service as many of these folks just experienced the worst situation in their lives and most could never clean up after such an incident.
I am so glad you did the video the way you used to do it without all of the talking and interviewing. I'm from Indianapolis and I'm glad you're there. With the way crime has been lately you're definitely needed.
Also who knew that crime scene cleaners had to go through an entire renovation as well, I certainly didn't. Thank you for the video, we needed to see this, despite the maggots
i can understand all the cleaning but to almost demolish the guys home seems total overboard . why wire brush tiled floor then rip it up pointless .
@@johnnicholson9118 if they just ripped up the floor with all the bio on the tiles, they'd risk spattering it on the walls, toilet, etc., thus having to clean up even more
What would people do without you all to do the most unthinkable job that many can't or won't do? You have my utmost respect.
I think if I watch this video several times, I may get used to the maggots. Is that even possible?
Been doing coroners work for more than 20 years. The smell of a extended decomp is something you never forget.
He seems to have kept a clean and orderly home...until this. No one wants strangers to see their home when it's messy, let alone when it contains the aftermath of your own decomposition. Saints preserve us from such an end.
Some saints may not want to get too close to help you. Even they have limits.
I thought this aswell x
Actually, I don't give a rat's ass about what happens after my death.
@@LSD97123 That is definitely the sensible way to look at it.
@@LSD97123 To tell you the truth, now that I've thought about it, neither would i give a "rats' ass" or any other kind of ass. I hope to not be wake to what happens next! And, i am hoping there is Nothing else! because i'd really be sorry to have returned to this sorry assed life!
This one made me gag and usually things don’t bother me … but those maggots crawling on the paper towels after they were wiped up … damn!
I have to give you guys and girls the upmost RESPECT. The way you show respect in your words. Xx
First of all, I had no idea such extensive work went into this, all the cleaning and demo! A massive job.
Annndd I was also thinking some of those flies escaped and probably landed on someone's hamburger down the street after being in a decomposing body 😳 🤢🤮
BRU
😟omg
Exactly
I've missed your videos, glad to see you back. That was quite the messy job, and I've never seen so many maggots in my life. Awesome cleanup you-all. 👍👍👍👍👍
The maggots were creepy but all the oozy decomp and removal was amazing. That bathroom rug was awful! I had a property I manage with the worst case of german roaches, bed bugs, and hoarding I have ever seen, your guys in Kissimmee did an amazing job removing the hoard, filth, and mildew-infested cabinets. The pest control vendor is still treating it to eradicate the bugs.....Hats off to CSC!
i know that a lot of these stories of the deceased can't be shared because of confidentiality but wish you could. Back stories are really interesting. thanks
I would not have the stomach to do this,glad you all are out there.
Just another wonderful job, guys. Respectfully and professionally done, as usual. Kinda always puts things in perspective. When you found the gentleman's watch, I think that for me would be harder than the maggots(well, the smell!!!)
Thank heaven there are people capable and willing to do this job. I can't even imagine how the family or landlord would possibly be able to clean up something like this.
That bath rug almost did me in.. Almost! 🤢
It turned me also..why am I here?
This incredible mess can even become a bigger challenge! Imagine having to clean a place where a man has not only died but a week after, when the cleaners show up, he's found chewed up a tad and eaten by his 3 starving huskies? Not at all a pretty picture! You guys can handle with grace what i couldn't in a million years! More power to you!
You could not pay me enough to do this job! Much respect to all of you!
Right so much respect cuz ik a lot of this has them thinking rlly depressing stuff and not being able to sleep at night
Probably pays really well though
@@BedfastSquid you would be surprised. I don't work for these guys but I'm the supervisor for another bio remediation service and I don't make but 23 dollars an.hour
@@dillonmccurry7537 they pay $15 to $18, im a cleaner and dont clean up a house for less than $40hr, these guys deserver $80hr plus tips.
@@kellycasteloomg thats top bad whyyy would anyone wants to work this job?!!! 😭😭likee js work at fast foood bro
I love it. When you’re watching you’re like oh yeah I can handle that…then you buy a franchise and you’re like oh crap! I’m sure much different in person with the smells and such. Especially as a newbie. Great job handling it guys!
I’m pretty sure I would’ve run to Target for a squeegee and dustpan before I would’ve cleaned those maggots up with a paper towel! Yikes. Seriously though, you all do really tough work and I love how your priority is always to help the families and loved ones of the deceased. (Also, of all the social media accounts I’ve seen, the comments here on your channel are by far the kindest and most compassionate. I don’t think I’ve seen one nasty comment so far and that’s impressive. Keep doing what you’re doing!)
I could never do what you guys do and that’s what makes you guys awesome 👏 Rest In Peace to the guy 🕊
I am having such a hard time stomaching this and don't appreciate you tainting Willy Wonka with this music 😂😂😂
You all are seriously amazing. Thank you for doing this truly intense job!
So glad this is not smell aviation. I had to clean up after my landlord when he died. It was nothing compared to this. The world is lucky to have people like you guys.
I'm from Southern Indiana. Good to know that there is a Spalding decon team setting up in indy sometime in the future.
A close friend of mine had need of services like that a few years ago after her husband shot himself. So this hits home.
Love to hear a Spaulding Decon is going in Indy, my hometown. If I was younger and more physically able I would love a chance to do this for a living. Love watching as always. Keep up the great work!!
The man that lives across from my mom,in her apartments. He died and was there for two weeks. The smell was unbelievable.
We use ozone generators in car rental, too. It works extremely well, but it is exceptionally dangerous and you have to keep the car locked up while it's running so no one can get in it. We air it out for a few minutes following, as well. It kills EVERYTHING, including you if you're inside while it's on.
So much respect for these guys!
Thank God for people like all of you. 👍🙏
Is there any particular reason why you aren't using stuff like sawdust to absorb large puddles of bio before scooping it up? It feels very finnicky to use so many paper towels by hand for large amounts of liquid.
I agree I work at a school as a cleaner and any liquid that been on the floor we use a special stuff to put on top and absorbs
I agree 100% they must use Brawny... LOL
Love you Laura and Fiona ♥️🙏
Even using a squeegee before mopping it up seems like it would be more efficient.
@@jrpacer6355 I worked in asda as a cleaner, we would never have been allowed to scoop all that up with a paper towel, about time this cleaning firm bought some up to date equipment,
7:29 love the lofi song you put in the back of the video😹👍🏻
Im taking a forensic science class right now, and it's really enjoyable. this teaches me more stuff, so this helps with my class. I love this kind of stuff. I either want to be a Forensic pathologist or a vet tech. I'm on track for my high school graduation! worked all day on my forensic homework today. Got to learn some cool stuff.
I don't know what you guys get paid but surely 100 percent you all need a raise you guys are the true heros
the best way to have dealt with the maggots is use a squigee broom and get them in one area or corner and use a shovel , one or to may have escaped but you gutted the place anyways
That happy music along with "he blew up and popped" haha 😄
I feel like spraying it with product and using a squeegee to move the death juice to a dust pan might work a little better than just moving it around with paper towels alone, but 🤷🏻♀️
Death juice--wow, that’s FN brutal…think I’ll stay with my reg. job. Much respect for these cats.
@@davemoskot1776 Yeah, serious props to these people because there’s no way I could do that!! I watch Aurikatariina clean homes, and she uses a squeegee on the floors. Gave me the idea ☺️
Sawdust, soak it up and shovel away.
God Bless All of U for Ur Bravery n Services
Wow .. I always wonder why hair isn’t covered- can can imagine it would be very warm in Tampa but yet again I’ve seen other crime cleaners in colder weather !! I do you after but still ??? Great job btw. 💯💯😘
I know right ✅
I'd be worried some of these nasty maggots would get on my hair and uncovered skin.
Why don't they wear head gear?
Same thing with police officers who wear bullet proof vests but their heads are exposed.
A shot to the head is devastating as well!
@@iGoddess unless you are a trained sniper its extremely difficult to shoot someone in the head. the chest is 2-3 times wider than the head, and thats why military and law enforcement wear plates
Also... the smell of decomp would be on their hair and skin!! It is a protein based molecule that actually attaches!! As a nurse, I have been around decomposed limbs... that smell goes HOME with you!!
You all deserve a medal for doing this job. There is no way I could ever do it.
I love you guys. I’m so excited to hear a Spaulding Decon has opened up here in Indianapolis!!!
I'm always eating and watching before bed. I need to become a Crime scene tech.
Or an advanced decomp Mortician lol
6:30 Why do you guys not use some sort of scraper on that surface to just push it all together then scoop it all up? Seems like it would be quicker to just do that for the surface matter and maggots that you're wiping up. Layman perspective, would love to hear from the pros
This was during our franchise training so we like our new owners to get into the thick of it! A squeegee would've made it too easy! 🤣🤣
@@CrimeSceneCleaning is that why they're just wearing kiddos rain boots, lol. I was cringing watching the one woman slipin and slidin in the maggot stew even more about that than the maggots.
Daaaang those maggots moved as one
The song when they are cleaning floors sounds like Willie Wonka an Chocolate Factory!!
😳😳😂😂🤔🤔 just me?
Yup it is!
I would hate finding out that happened in my home before I lived in it. I was thinking about this guy's family. That would be hard to come in after this to remove his belongings and knowing the decomp was bad. I'm glad there are people who do this
Woo hoo! Glad to see you guys out together again. The other crews you show are ok but you guys are the real deal!
All of you do awesome work cleaning up. This is the first one I've watched and didn't know if I could finish. All the maggots made my skin crawl 😩, you do fabulous work
Glad to see Laura and Fiona again ❤️
At the risk of being a tad melodramatic, people that clean up filth like this are heroes.
Thank you! It's an often overlooked in underappreciated job but it is incredibly necessary!
Damn that's a lot of maggots! 🤮
Not the willy wonka music while they scrub up maggot soup
Hi Laura and Fiona, Omg It's been a while since I've watched A Decomposition Episode and it's like When I first started watching year's ago horrific. Your brain becomes desensitized to the content. Now it's like whoa... But I'm glad we get to watch these again. The way my brain comprehends These video's is the Soul Goes Home/Heaven and the Body stays behind. Well 20% of the Kind, Caring, Compassionate, Loving Soul's.. the other 80% of Evil Personified, Narcarcisstic, Cruel, Soulless Human being's Go Somewhere Else. Great Job Team.. Sending My Kindest Thoughts to you all and your families from Australia xx
I knew a guy who worked for Aftermath for a few months. Not his bag, He said he could not even look at rice for the rest of life. I know I could never do this job. Many can't. Very high turnover.
Please forgive me if you already have answered this question - I was wondering what happens to your footwear , tools and equipment etc. that comes in contact with the bio - Is there some sort of de-contamination process ya’ll go through post site clean up? Would love to hear commentary during the video describing what y’all do to keep your equipment safe.
I would think they use it for the day and toss them in with the hazmat trash. I wonder if the smell gets into their hair and they go home and their family probably can smell it off them and they probably take ten showers a day
This video made me extremely uncomfortable, not because it's disgusting but because of the reality. My father is in his late 60's, has heart problems, lives alone at least a 20min drive away from my house, and is terrible about keeping his phone charged. I really don't want him to end up like this...
This is the first one that got to me also. Just the amount of maggies!! YUK!!
QUESTION: If you're removing the tile anyway. And it's going to BIO Refuse, why do you spend so much time cleaning it first?
Prob so they aren’t sliding around on maggots and blood
The decision to put the Pure Imagination song from Willy Wonka over the maggot sludge pick up montage was a stroke of disturbed genius.
I loved this episode! Loved the music and everything 😊
you know, i watch these decomp cleanup videos all the time but this is the first that has actually made me gag....., whew, gotta hand it to the team for getting into it
I love how I am sitting here eating oatmeal while watching this🤣 I know exactly how Laura and Fiona feel about still being hungry despite the circumstance’s!
I was eating eggs and waffles. I can also eat while watching Dr. Pimple Popper. Not sure what that says exactly.
I've been watching your videos trying to figure out if I'd be able to handle being a crime scene cleanup person because it keeps popping up as job listings in my area.
After careful consideration I'm pretty sure I'd be adding to the biohazard by losing my lunch over stuff like this. I don't know if I'd ever get used to it.
I have so much respect for you guys and everyone who handles these jobs.
