How I charge less for suicide cleanup in Anaheim.

Because I own my business and I do all of my suicide cleanup work in Anaheim alone, my prices remain low. I do not need to pay workman's compensation insurance. I do not need to pay into social security. I do not need to pay for employee medical insurance. I save myself a lot of frustration. My clients save a lot of money.

Client security arises as the greatest issue with employees. Because I my own work I do not need to worry about employees stealing from clients. I found thousands of dollars on one San Diego suicide cleanup job. Had an employee been present who knows what would have become of my client's money?

What I do for suicide cleanup.

Suicide cleanup in Anaheim in summer months often incurs decomposition issues not as pressing in the winter months. The summer heat in Anaheim cause dehydration and decomposition to occur more quickly. There are positive and negatives to these natural processes.

Whatever the conditions, I begin by disinfecting before suicide cleanup begins. I then remove soiled materials. For example, if the suicide occurred on a bed, I dissect the mattress before removing the mattress. I place dissected materials into a bag for any of the following:

1. Placement in a biohazard waste bag to freeze for Stericycle pickup.
2. Placement in a bucket for chemical and water dilution and decontamination.
3. Flushing down sanitary sewer.
4. Sealing with heavy-duty paint primers and placement in .3 mil. bags for disposal as biowaste.

What to expect from a suicide cleanup.

The outcome of suicide cleanup returns the suicide scene to its pre-incident biological contamination level or less. Getting to this point requires on-going cleaning and decontamination.

Removal of the source material requires thoroughly inspecting the soiled area and surrounding area. Removal occurs by actually picking up material. Scrubbing and lifting material with paper towels. Scrubbing, rinsing, and vacuuming materials, and other cleaning processes.      Top

You should expect a significant reduction in blood and death odors, if not total disappearance from perception.

Chemicals I use for suicide cleanup.

I use safe house-hold chemicals for much of my suicide cleanup work. Sometimes I may use something from the professional cleaning suppliers, but these occasions remain rare. By using readily available chemicals my clients have an opportunity to inspect my chemicals' contents found on their market shelves.

Chemical residues should not remain on a suicide cleanup job site. Rinsing these residues helps to remove the. Usually chemicals evaporate on their own as ventilation helps to return the suicide cleanup scene to its original condition.

My experience in death cleanup.

My death cleanup experience includes military trauma cleanup. In the last 7 years cleaner hundreds of death scenes and over 100 suicide cleanup jobs. My smallest death cleanup work involved simple blood cleanup from a garage floor. My largest death cleanup required removal of an entire second floor and wall.

Coroner corruption.

When you hear the phrase, "coroner corruption," think of fraud. The same holds for medical examiners and county administrators. These public servants have access to death administration information. This information leads to direct contact with grieving families. During grieving families most vulnerable moments, some public servants take advantage of their naivety. These families receive directions to corrupt suicide cleanup companies.

As a result these corrupt suicide cleanup companies receive suicide cleanup business from these grieving families. Families pay a lot of money because of this fraudulent diad.

Blood and Death Odors

Blood and death odors often permeate fabrics, cotton, furnishings, walls, carpet, carpet padding, paper, and other materials. These odors do not cause biohazards for people or other animals. They do cause nausea for some of us.

With practice these odors become less offending, but few people care to spend their time around blood and death odors created before suicide cleanup or after suicide cleanup. Suicide cleanup should remove a significant amount of blood and death odors. By cleaning and disinfecting these odors begin to disappear.

By ventilating rooms and buildings these odors begin to disappear. Without ventilation these odors will disappear, but their presence remains assured for long period of time when ventilation does not take place.

Ozone machine treatment reduces blood and death odors significantly if not in total. The only way to know if ozone treatment removes suicide's blood and death odors requires ozone shock treatment and continuing ozone application.

To the benefit of Anaheim residents, Anaheim's dry air helps to remove blood and death odors more quickly then other places. In Louisiana, for example, destroying the death odor requires tackling extreme heat in extreme humidity.

Short suicide narrative

Race - Ethnicity - Minority - Who commits suicide most often by percentage? - Risk Factors

I use the terms race, ethnicity, and minorities while trying to remain sociological.

Describing suicide cleanup tasks should not cause alarm. Describing suicide's causation by race, ethnicity, and minority social status may cause readers some alarm. In consideration of these issues, I define my terms below. Suicide cleanup technicians share similar experiences when it comes to suicide cleanup relating to what follows.

For example, suicide cleanup technicians expect most suicide cleanup jobs to involve older white males killed with their own firearms than any other group.

Race

Race here means a division in a species in which physical characteristics differ. These characteristics include differences in type of hair, skin color, nose shape, and illnesses. At no time should readers believe humanity consists of more than one race in my writing.

I use the term "race" for descriptive purposes and do not suggest a "race" gene exists. Strictly speaking, in scientific terms, for a race to exist, it must be able to pass down genetically consistent characteristics generation to generation without variation. This genetic stability does not exist within humanity. Therefore, in scientific terms, the term "race" applies to humanity as a whole.

"Race" has many misuses and the last thing I want to do on a suicide cleanup web site is to misuse any social terms. Suicide cleanup involves cleaning first, but I cannot resist adding socially useful information to my suicide cleanup web sites.

With this understood I move onto defining ethnicity.

Ethnicity

Ethnicity implies ethnic group. Ethnic groups share a language, cultural ties in general. National identities apply to ethnic groups in most cases; in some cases tribal and clan identities apply to certain ethnic groups. Ethnicity becomes important in the study of suicide, but has little to do with suicide cleanup, of course. I use the term to help describe suicide by ethnicity for the reader's benefit.

Minority

A minority usually consists of numerically fewer people. Minority groups often suffer discrimination by the larger majority group. We might think of racial and ethnic groupings as minority groups in some circumstances, but not all. Consider that white slaves in ancient Greece and Rome may have out numbered their ruling class masters.

Likewise in the United State's slave years, black slaves may have out numbered their white ruling class masters. But in no case do the white ruling class master suffer at the hands of their minority group, although greater in number.

So percentages of people in any one minority usually constitutes fewer people, numbers do not always dictate the nature of a minority group.

Social and economic power as well as cultural norms leading to the perception of power often define minority groups. In the study of suicide these considerations become important. Suicide cleanup has little value in these terms, although it never hurts to know about one's surroundings and social conditions.

I believe that it is better "not to do unto others what I would not have them do unto me," whatever anyone's social status.

Who commits suicide most often by percentage?

Little room for error arises in answering this question. Percentage wise, older white males commit suicide most frequently. But if we look to race or "whiteness" for an answer, we look in the wrong place, but not completely.

My first suicide cleanup involved a young white male. In fact, young white males constituted the majority of my suicide cleanup jobs for the first few years of my suicide cleanup business.

It seemed that once I learned more about suicide by white males, the older white male suicide cleanup work started to come my way.

Whiteness as a statistical marker for suicide does not explain the more prominent indicators of white male suicide. We need to look to higher socioeconomic status, power, isolation, failure to seek help, and imagined failure in the eyes of others.

Although white males may not actually consider they were "born on first base" socially speaking, compared to other groups white males have a social status above other groups at birth. Economically, this status varies because working-class white males will not share the benefits and privileges bestowed on economically privileged white males. Compared to others, white males do inherit a privileged place in the modern United States, although not nearly as prominently so as in prior years.

Failure to attain social and economic "success" plagues some white males. They perceive "failure" as their life's outcome, even after achieving significant success at times. Self-esteem plummets and their self-work evaluation leads to depression.

Social isolation as a result of old age, as a result of drugs and alcohol, as a result of today's preference for the nuclear family, not the extended family, lead to more depression.

Older white males have less support then other groups. For example, older black females share much more social support through their families and churches. Black males also have social support unavailable to older white males. An irony arises because poverty for white males means isolation from other white males and females, as well as family members.

Because older black males and females share poverty in larger number than whites, they share living quarters for long-periods of time. Housing often includes established supportive relationships from economic necessity. None of this serves older white males as well in many cases.

White males in the United States turn to aggression, and inward aggression occurs for depressed older, white males. In addition, the propensity of white males in the United States to own guns and rifles creates a ready means to carry out suicide on a moment's notice. Bad news, extreme anger or rage, intoxication, illness, and firearms all come into place for older white male suicide.

Over all white males account for about 73% of suicides in the United States. Over 64% of these suicides occur with firearms.

White females come in second for suicide. Pills seem to offer the best means of suicide for this group.

Black females attempt suicide most often of all demographic groups, and succeed the least often for relative to number of attempts. The best explanation for these skewed numbers points to more black women living in poverty.

As a result of impoverished housing situations black women tend to live in close quarters with more supportive female and male role models emotional supporters. Contrast these conditions with the older white males' suicide successes and we begin to gleam some light in the world of suicidal behavior.

Risk Factors

Everyone has risk factors for agression against others and internalized agression against self. Risk factors for one individual may not influence one person as much as another person. Below I list risk factors as presented by the Comprehensive Textbood of Suicidology.
