Springfield Tear Gas Cleanup: Common Questions Answered

What rules apply to tear gas waste in Massachusetts?

Rules for hazardous residue vary by state, county and city. Waste may need special handling and cannot always go in the regular trash. Ask the local health department or fire department what applies.

Is the space safe for pets and children afterward?

Only after it is cleaned and checked. Pets and young children are closer to floors, so they can be affected more. Keep them out until the crew says the work is complete.

How much does tear gas cleanup cost?

The cost depends on the size of the area, the type of agent, how much soft furniture and carpet was reached and whether the air system ran. The cleanup team sets its price after seeing the space.

What should I do first after tear gas is released?

Get to fresh air, take others and pets with you, and keep everyone out of the space. Do not hose it down or mix cleaning products. If anyone has trouble breathing, call 911 or Poison Control.

Why does the air system matter?

If the heating or cooling system ran, it may have pulled irritant particles into vents and ducts and moved them to other rooms. Crews isolate and clean the system so residue does not spread again.

How long does tear gas cleanup take?

A small space can be finished quickly, while a whole building, or one where the air system ran, takes longer. The team gives a timeline after seeing the site. Keep the space closed until the work is done.
