Homicide Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Mesquite Hills, El Paso, TX

Can homicide cleaners work in a rental or apartment?

Yes. Landlords and property managers often get cleanup done to make a unit safe for the next tenant. Crews contain the work so other units are not affected. Lease terms decide who pays.

Is there emotional support available?

Many families find support through victim services, counselors and faith communities. If you or someone you know is in crisis, call or text 988 anytime. The cleanup crew focuses on the property so you can focus on healing.

Does the Texas program pay if I clean it myself?

A person who cleans alone can be reimbursed for supplies. Hiring a company may allow the company's service costs to be reimbursed. Either way, keep every receipt. Only the Texas Attorney General can decide a claim.

How to clean a murder scene?

It should be left to professionals. Blood and body fluids carry bloodborne pathogens and often soak deeper than they look. A crew contains the area, removes contaminated materials, disinfects and treats odor.

How do I apply to the Texas Crime Victims' Compensation Program?

A victim or a claimant, such as a family member or representative, can apply. The crime must be reported to law enforcement, and the application is due within three years unless there is good cause. Call (800) 983-9933.

Is the family expected to clean the scene?

No, and it is not advised. Cleanup involves health risks and can be hard emotionally. Professional crews handle it so the family does not have to see or touch the affected area.
