Police and the medical examiner do not clean. The property owner, the family or the estate books the cleanup, and a biohazard cleanup team does the work. In a rental, the lease and local law decide who pays, and a landlord or attorney can explain the details.
Specialized biohazard cleanup crews do. They wear protective gear, remove affected materials, disinfect surfaces and treat odor. If you wonder how to clean up suicide scenes safely, the answer is to leave it to the crew. Relatives are advised not to clean the room themselves, because fluids can carry germs and the work is deeply upsetting.
Crews work quietly and treat the job with discretion. Ask about arrival and parking details when you call. If a landlord needs to notify other tenants, that decision belongs to the landlord, not the cleanup crew.
Yes, once it has been cleaned and any repairs are done. Questions about what must be disclosed are best answered by a real estate attorney or agent. A cleanup team can provide records of the work.
