It can if the source was not fully removed. Odor returns when fluids remain in padding, subfloor or walls. A team that removes soaked materials, treats the structure and runs air treatment is more likely to end it. Ask what happens if a smell remains.
Yes. Heat speeds the changes behind the odor and makes it stronger and wider spreading. A closed home with the air conditioning off can hold a strong smell. The steps stay the same, but acting soon after the scene is released helps.
Teams use a mix of source removal, disinfection, sealing and air treatment. Equipment can include ozone generators, hydroxyl units, thermal foggers and air scrubbers. Which method fits depends on how far the smell has spread and what the surfaces are made of.

It depends on how far the smell spread and how much must be removed. A small area can be finished in a day, while a larger job with odor in the structure takes longer. The team can explain the timeline after hearing the details.
