Gross Filth

Gross Filth/Distressed Properties

Some examples of Gross Filth include:

Trash left about the property (inside or out).
Multiple pets that have been allowed to defecate
inside a residence.
Wild animals that have gotten inside and created
messes and/or defecated.
'Pack Rat' behavior (Hoarding) -- uncontrolled
collecting of newspapers, clothing, etc.
Any unhealthy living situation or condition that
puts the resident or others at risk or makes the
property unsafe.

Removing the rubbish from a neglected property is a
large and dangerous task, especially when there are
potentially infectious substances and other unknown
exposures buried within the contents of the general
filth. A few examples from a very long list are
hypodermic needles, broken glass, weapons or
anything saturated with blood or bodily fluids.
Bowdecon Trauma and Crime Scene Services staff is
properly trained and fully certified to safely remove
and dispose of the unwanted items (furniture, garbage,
carpet, sharps, etc.).

We will then clean, decontaminate and remove any
applicable biohazards to make the property habitable
and/or ready for resale. To the best of our ability,
discarded items will be recycled rather than simply
disposed in a landfill. The staff of Bowdecon truly
cares about our clients and their specific needs.
