Default Vomit all over House

I bought a house that was formerly inhabited by an alcoholic. In fact
the guy died right in the middle of the living room, in a pool of
alcohol, vomit and blood, from both his liver damage and after falling
off the upstairs balcony. Because he died without any will, and no
relatives existed, the house was sold for back taxes. This was my
only opportunity to own my own home, at the current price of homes, so
I got the financing and bought it.

Now I am faced with having to remove all the dried vomit in the house.
The stuff is everywhere, on the floors, carpeting, walls, ceilings,
etc. It is even in the refrigerator, oven, light fixtures,
everywhere..

Besides the vomit, there is the blood stains on the living room
carpet, and a good amount of dried human feces, and urine stains
everywhere. I have lived here for about 2 weeks now, and just can not
seem to be able to remove it, or for that matter, tolerate cleaning
the stuff up, without vomiting myself. Of course, everytime I vomit
myself, I just got to clean that too....

So far, the only way I have been able to clean this up, is to get
myself extremely intoxicated prior to cleaning. I have never been
much of a drinker, but ever since I moved into this place, that seems
to be the only way to tolerate living in this mess.

Any suggestions how to clean this?

Since you got a great deal on the house hire a fire restoration company
to do just the gross cleaning.

Toss all carpets and everything else fabric that will hold the odor.

clean everything by scrubbing with bleach water, dry completelt.

then paint all surfaces with BIN or KILZ primer sealer, and all real
wood surfaces with OUTDOOR POLYURETHANE, although you will have to sand
all floors at least a little so the polyurethane sticks good.

you will also need to have the furnaces and ductwork cleaned and
deodorized treated.

if you fail to do ANY of this the stench will reappear, espically at
warm moist times.

essentially you cant clean the odor away, you MUST seal it into the
surfaces so you dont smell it

I had a similiar home restoration twice, once with a fire and once with
human odors. it can be done but I wouldnt live there till its cleaned
up, so you dont get ill.

fire restoration sends peple in moon suits with full respirators or
this reason.

you can do the entire job yourself but getting the worst out first
professionally will still save you tons

He just keeps changing his name posting this crap. The other was the "death
house" one.

It's one thing if it was slightly humorous. But his writing blows dead bear.

Just killfile him.

Don't feed the trolls.

My gawd you're an idiot. Can you say, "Troll"?

You are completely wrong. I used to be a troll, but I didnt pay my
membership fee to the "National Troll Association", so I was
disqualified as a troll. Therefore I am no longer a licensed troll.
