Tear gas is a chemical substance used by law enforcement agencies as a non-violent means of extraction in a variety of ways such as riot control and to force the surrender of fugitives confined in a building.
Tear gas is fired out of a shotgun and the cannister itself is shaped like a small torpedo. When the cannister hits inside the structure it ruptures, releasing a fine oily mist that penetrates all areas of a room. Usually several cannisters are fired into a home making it virtually impossible for a suspect to hide. Unfortunately, the entire house is uninhabitable after such an event. Tear gas usually leaves pink or other color paint on walls and other surfaces where the cannisters have ruptured. Tear Gas cannisters can and will penetrate into a wall. When this occurs, the drywall must be removed and all pieces of the projectile must be removed. A.C.T. Remediation Services utilizes special equipment and tear gas neutralizers to remove tear gas residue and odor. A company hired for tear gas removal must be properly trained. Tear gas clean up cannot be accomplished with the proper tools, equipment and cleaning solutions.
