Tear Gas and Pepper Spray Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Serra Mesa, San Diego, CA
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 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.
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.
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.
How do I choose a tear gas cleanup company?
Ask what training the crew has, how it disposes of waste, how it documents the work and what protective gear it uses. A good company explains the plan before work starts.
How do I get rid of tear gas in a house?
