Call any hour. A cleanup specialist can walk you through the process.
Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Blood can support hepatitis C, HIV and hepatitis B. Hepatitis B may survive on a surface for at least seven days, according to the CDC.
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
Raw sewage carries E. coli, salmonella and hepatitis A, and wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Surface cleaning with sprays or bleach misses fluids that have entered carpet padding, drywall and the subfloor. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.
