I was ready to write this mattress off… but there was one layer I hadn’t checked yet. šŸ‘€

We’re back inside a hotel room for another trauma and biohazard cleanup in Jacksonville, Florida. Thankfully, the individual involved survived and is recovering. Our job now is to handle the aftermath with care.

After removing the contaminated pillows and blankets, it was time to find out what had reached the mattress underneath. I’ve cut apart enough contaminated mattresses to know this could turn into a much bigger removal job.

But this mattress protector surprised me. Watch what happens when I peel it back.

That’s the iceberg effect of crime scene cleanup: what you see on the surface is only the beginning. You have to inspect the layers underneath before deciding what can stay and what needs to go.

Jax Decon is a local, veteran-owned, family-operated crime scene and biohazard cleanup company serving Jacksonville and Northeast Florida.

Would you have expected that mattress protector to hold up?

Forensic Files on the hotel TV. A real crime scene cleanup waiting in the bathroom.

Well… that’s one way to bring your work and your interests together. šŸ˜…

I’m in full protective gear, watching a forensic investigation unfold on television while getting ready to handle the aftermath of an incident just a few feet away. You couldn’t script that timing.

This is a glimpse into life at Jax Decon in Jacksonville, Florida. Crime scene cleanup and biohazard remediation take us into situations most people never expect to face. Once the emergency response and investigation are finished, somebody still has to handle what’s left behind.

Blood cleanup involves more than wiping away the visible mess. It means assessing contamination, removing affected materials when necessary, and cleaning and disinfecting the affected areas.

When I say I’m lucky to do this work, I mean I’m grateful to have a skill that helps people through difficult circumstances. Behind the respirator and protective suit, that’s what makes this job meaningful.

Follow Jax Decon for a look behind the scenes of crime scene cleaning and biohazard cleanup in Jacksonville and Northeast Florida.

Be honest—could you watch Forensic Files while doing this job, or would you grab the remote? šŸ˜‚

Found a little time capsule in the backyard during a hoarding cleanup - Popular Mechanics, October 2001. šŸ“–

Twenty-five years later, here I am flipping through it. Who else used to read these?

No better feeling than a job well done

An unattended death cleanup can involve much more than the place where someone passed away.

When we first enter a home like this, our job is to evaluate the entire property and determine how far the biohazard contamination extends.

In this case, the individual experienced a significant GI bleed before eventually passing away on the fold-out couch in the living room.

But the contamination wasn’t limited to that couch.

There were affected areas in the bedroom, bathroom, hallway carpet, furniture and multiple locations throughout the home. By the time we reached the individual’s final resting place and began dismantling the fold-out bed, we discovered contamination extending through the mattress and into the materials underneath.

That’s why professional biohazard remediation isn’t simply about cleaning what you can see.

Carpet, padding, mattresses, upholstered furniture and other porous materials can absorb biological contamination. Sometimes those materials can’t be cleaned or disinfected effectively—they have to be removed.

Every unattended death scene is different. The first walkthrough helps us determine what can be saved, what needs to be removed and what it will take to return the property to a safe condition.

This is what that initial assessment looks like.

What does a decomposing body actually smell like?

It’s one of the questions I get asked all the time—and unfortunately, there really isn’t a pleasant way to describe it.

Imagine spoiled meat, dead animals, garbage, urine, f***s and other biological material sitting in the Florida heat for days or even weeks. That gets you somewhere in the neighborhood.

And sometimes removing the source is only the beginning.

Severe decomposition odor can pe*****te flooring, subfloor, drywall, insulation and other porous building materials. In some cases, proper odor remediation means removing contaminated materials and taking the structure all the way back to clean, unaffected surfaces.

That’s the part of biohazard cleanup most people never see.

Hopefully this gives you an idea of what decomposition smells like—and hopefully you never have to experience it yourself.

Jax Decon provides professional unattended death, decomposition and biohazard cleanup throughout Jacksonville and Northeast Florida.

What you see is only the beginning.

This vehicle required professional biohazard cleanup following a self-delete. Once we removed the carpet, padding, seat covering, and foam, we discovered contamination reaching all the way to the metal floor beneath it.

Crime scene cleanup isn’t simply wiping down what’s visible. Every affected layer must be located, removed, cleaned, and properly disinfected—including the damage most people never see.

Jax Decon provides discreet vehicle biohazard cleanup, crime scene cleanup, trauma cleanup, and unattended death cleanup throughout Jacksonville and Northeast Florida. We’re local, family-operated, veteran-owned, and available 24/7.

Some jobs stay with you.

This was one of my earliest unattended death cleanups here in Jacksonville, Florida, and years later, I still remember it clearly.

A woman had been unable to reach her brother for weeks. Eventually, she drove into Jacksonville to check on him herself and sadly discovered that he had passed away inside the home.

When we arrived, the Florida heat and lack of air conditioning had accelerated the decomposition process.

But the part I’ll never forget was the mattress.

At first glance, it didn’t look nearly as bad as I expected. Then we tried to move it.

Drip. Drip. Drip.

And then it started pouring.

The memory-foam mattress had absorbed an incredible amount of decomposition fluid and had become so saturated and heavy that carrying it out whole wasn’t an option. I ultimately spent hours cutting it apart piece by piece so it could be safely removed.

And that was only part of the job. The home was also heavily hoarded and required extensive cleaning and remediation.

But that final shot is what matters.

The same bedroom where someone had passed away and remained undiscovered for weeks was eventually clean, sanitized, restored, and safe again.

Someone could walk into that room today and never know what happened there.

That’s the point of what we do.

Professional crime scene cleanup isn’t about the shock. It’s about taking one of the worst situations a family can experience and leaving behind a safe space they can move forward from.
