Ozone above a concentration of 0.1ppm is highly dangerous to humans so one has to execute extreme caution

Hi Jennifer
More as a householder with experience living in possum infested houses than in hospital facilities, I would say residual smell is most likely a deceased possum which remains in al cavity (wall/roof/floor, take your pick). We actually had an issue here at HSN during a building expansion program where a possum found its way into a ceiling cavity (small crawl space) and ended up dying in there. The flies came first (humidity breeds them quickly), then the smell, which grew as time progressed, then abated, but the flies persisted. Took lots of unpleasant crawling to find the offender, actually. Would suggest a pest control expert with experience in possum infestations to do a full check. Other than that, lots of ozone generating machine for a long time….
Good luck.
Cheers
Michael

Im wondering if anyone has experience with clean up after possum infiltration?
One of our smaller clinics had the pesky critters come visiting and they managed to make a rather gruesome mess while awaiting their eviction. Clean up has occurred but there still is a malingering smell… particularly with warmer weather…. Any suggestions?
