Cleaner is a nickname given to a form of Bio-Organic Weapon designed to resemble soldiers. They are dispatched via helicopter to "clean up" any evidence of wrongdoing by Umbrella.

Information

Clothed and masked, these B.O.W.s possessed a distinctly humanoid shape and posture. Though, their non-human nature would be revealed when they attacked - they moved like apes, favoring their unnaturally long arms, and slouched, and hooted like monkeys when moving - and when killed - shrieking inhumanly before dissolving into nothing.

They were unusually intelligent for B.O.W.s, able to carry out orders and use firearms with some accuracy, as well as being faster and more agile than most humans. Despite these advantages in combat, Cleaners were physically weak compared to other B.O.W., and could be killed with only a few shots from a handgun. They compensated for their individual weakness however, by attacking in coordinated packs. This, combined with their agility and ranged weaponry, made them deceptively dangerous.

Although B.O.W.s themselves, the Cleaners were led by a human commander, at least during the events of the Sheena Island outbreak.
