What Owners and Managers Ask About Pepper Spray Cleanup in Riverdale Park

How to remove tear gas from surfaces?

Do not hose it down or wipe it around. Particles and oil spread when disturbed. A professional crew uses protective gear, lifts residue from the surface and disposes of it as hazardous waste.

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.

What is the difference between tear gas and pepper spray?

Tear gas is a group of irritant agents, usually fine solids, such as CS, CN and CR. Pepper spray, or OC, is made from chili pepper extract in an oil base. They behave differently, so cleanup methods differ.

Does baking soda neutralize tear gas?

No. Baking soda is not a reliable fix, and it may only move residue around. A cleanup crew uses products matched to the agent and removes contamination instead of masking it.

What if my eyes or skin burn?

Follow first aid guidance and get medical help if symptoms continue. If anyone has trouble breathing, call 911. This page covers property cleanup, not treatment.

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.

Does your Riverdale Park space still sting after tear gas?
