What Owners and Managers Ask About Pepper Spray Cleanup in McCalla

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 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.

Should I hose it down?

No. Water can spread residue or make irritation worse, and runoff can carry it into floors, walls and vents. Leave the area and keep others out, then call a cleanup team.

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.

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.
