My Haz-Mat team responded to a womans home with a bad case of A.S.S. . She claimed to see white powder on a letter . We had her disrobe and package her clothing in zip lock bags then had her take a shower to de-con . She came out with dry hair , she didn't want to mess up her doo . We had her go back in and wash it then gave her a Tyvex suit to wear .
She watched as we put the ziplock bags with her clothing into a drum , and load it in a police van ,and she started to freak .She was demanding that she should be re-embursed for her new boots !!
The letter came from her son , was her sons hand writing on the envelope , and had the proper return address on it .We never did see any powder.
