Brief Incident Description Notes. On 4/14/21 at around 2:50 pm X shot Vikane in a single family home and two other detached structures. 5 to 10 minutes prior to the introduction of Vikane a total of 1.5 oz of chloropicrin was introduced in a single family home and a detached garage. On 4/15/21 at round 11:45 am X began the aeration process for the home. He saw that a water snake was out of place, and upon direction of his manager X he adjusted the water snake and continued the aeration as normal. On 4/16/21 at around 10:00 am X noticed a body on the ground next to the house under the tarps. The property consisted of a main house and detached structures which were enveloped in the same tarps. The body was found under the tarps between the main home and detached structure. He stopped the job and called the police and his management team. X responded and went to the job site, and he informed the local AG department and the structural pest control board. I arrived at the scene at 11:45 am and by that time law enforcement was at the scene and had pronounced the person as deceased. X was instructed to finish the clearing/certification of the home so they could investigate inside. Upon investigation they found a broken window and a bucket near the broken window. Law enforcement inform me that the deceased entered the home through the broken window, and cut himself upon entry of the home. During their investigation they found a blood trail throughout the home from the deceased and drug paraphernalia in the home that the home owners said didn't belong to them. By the time I had arrived at the scene the house was cleared for certification and upon review of the fume log and interviewing those involved with the fumigation process, I could find no signs of anything done improperly by the fumigation company.
Death
