Blood and bodily fluid cleanup
Not every blood cleanup follows a crime. A fall on a tile floor, a nosebleed that would not stop, dialysis at home or a hospice stay can leave more behind than a household cleaner can deal with.

Safe to do now
Keep people and pets away from the area. If you must touch anything, wear disposable gloves and wash your hands afterwards.
Don't vacuum dried blood, and don't shampoo carpet. Both spread it.
If you got blood on broken skin, in your eyes or in your mouth, call a doctor. The county medical examiner notes that family members worried about an exposure at a death scene can ask about bloodborne pathogen testing (medical examiner).
When to call a company
Call when blood has reached carpet, upholstery, a mattress or bare wood, or when there is more than you could wipe up with a few paper towels. Those materials hold fluid below the surface, which is where odor and staining come from.
A company can tell you on the phone whether a small job is worth a visit. Ask them.
Ready when you are
There is no need to call before the home or car has been released. When it has, one call puts you in touch with an independent cleanup company that works in the Antelope Valley.
