Sometimes. Some homeowners and business policies may cover cleanup after vandalism, a break-in or a covered event, and others exclude certain causes. Call your insurer before work starts and ask plainly what applies.

Rules for hazardous residue vary by state, county and city. Waste may need special handling and cannot always go in the regular trash. Ask the local health department or fire department what applies.
Tear gas and pepper spray are not ordinary germs or stains. Vinegar and bleach do not neutralize them, and mixing products can create dangerous fumes. Use fresh air and let a crew handle it.
Ask the agency what records it can give you. A police report number is often useful for insurance. Cleanup can start once the agency says the property can be entered.
A small space can be finished quickly, while a whole building, or one where the air system ran, takes longer. The team gives a timeline after seeing the site. Keep the space closed until the work is done.
Cleaners remove the irritant so people and pets can return safely.
