It is not advised. Blood carries bloodborne pathogens, and fluids soak deeper than they look. A professional crew has the protective equipment, disinfectants and waste handling to do the work safely.

It is the removal of blood, bodily fluids and other contaminated materials after an injury, violent event or sudden death. Crews disinfect the area, remove odor and dispose of waste safely.
