An odor that lingers past 24 hours usually means particles have settled deep into porous surfaces, not just the air.

Soot residue is acidic enough to corrode faucets, hinges, and electronics within about two days if left untreated.
Coughing or headaches that persist inside the home often trace back to fine soot particles still circulating in the air.
Bruce, MS insurers typically expect documented mitigation started within a set window, or coverage can get disputed.
