I wonder how many are going to want to get into crime scene cleaning after seeing the programme tonight.
What was a nice little niche market for those who wanted to do this sort of thing now risks being flooded with people. ;)

They are welcome to it.

Yes my thoughts too. Although they didn't show a true scene, the thought of cleaning someones blood and guts off a ceiling and 4 walls isn't my idea of a nice days work.

The state of some of those flats in them programmes are terrible.
I have cleaned some dirty places (general cleaning) but nothing like that.
Mingy carpets are bad enough these days.

It's not pleasant... take a look at these... the first ones were of a flat where an old chap had died.
We cleaned it up enough for someone to go in and rip it all out.

These next two were in a flat where the guy didn't know how to use the toilet... the toilet was full of it, so was the bath, the sink and the kitchen sink... mmmm, nice!   :P :P :P

Guess what he did for a living... he was a cleaner!!!!!

I like the way the matter in the bath must have separated with the solids forming the tide mark.  You could grow some prize winning tomatoes in that.

Did you notice that they were using 429? Chemspecs and also the meter JK was advising?

Yep  noticed that, also

He was not wearing a face mask for cleaning the blood.

He was not wearingan all in one suit to protect himself.

The machine he used at the end for contamination residue checking only checks for protiens and not for pathogens,viruses or any air borne diseases.

And I would not say that the cleaning practice  on the police vehicle was A. SAFE or B. Full
