Riverwest Tear Gas Cleanup: Common Questions Answered

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.

How long does tear gas cleanup take?

A small space can be finished quickly, while a whole building, or one where the air system ran, takes longer. The team gives a timeline after seeing the site. Keep the space closed until the work is done.

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.

How much does tear gas cleanup cost?

The cost depends on the size of the area, the type of agent, how much soft furniture and carpet was reached and whether the air system ran. The cleanup team sets its price after seeing the space.

What rules apply to tear gas waste in Wisconsin?

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.

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.
