Does homeowners insurance cover suicide cleanup?

The crew contains the area, removes affected materials, disinfects surfaces and treats odor. Waste leaves in sealed containers. The team checks the result and hands the space back, with keepsakes set aside for the family.
Who pays if the person was a tenant?
