Biohazard cleaning explained
What Biohazard Cleanup in Mchenry Means and Includes
Biohazard cleanup is the safe removal, disinfection and disposal of blood, bodily fluids, tissue and other infectious or hazardous materials after a death, a crime, an accident, a hoarding situation or a sewage backup.
It is also called bio hazard cleaning, biohazard remediation, trauma cleanup or bio cleanup. Deep cleaning alone is not professional biohazard cleanup. Technicians wear personal protective equipment, track where contamination traveled, discard porous items beyond disinfection and treat all affected areas until the property returns to a livable condition.

Health and safety
Chicagoland Biohazards and Their Serious Health Risks in Homes and Workplaces
Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Decomposition creates bacteria, gases and fluids that enter floors, then travel along the ventilation system into nearby rooms.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis A and E. coli.
Bloodborne Pathogens
Hepatitis C and B, along with HIV, can survive in blood. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.
Why Household Cleaners Do Not Work
Although bleach and sprays may clean on top, absorbed fluids remain in drywall, subfloor, carpet and its pad. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.

Call and On-Site Biohazard Assessment
The caller describes what occurred. Technicians inspect the scene, photograph it and agree the scope with you.
Containment of the Affected Area
The affected area is sealed off with plastic sheeting so contamination does not spread to other rooms.
Removal of Contaminated Materials
To keep affected material from being left behind, technicians cut out carpet, pad, drywall and other porous items that absorbed infectious materials, then seal them as medical waste.
Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection
Cleaning every surface is followed by treatment with hospital-grade, EPA-registered disinfectant.
Odor Removal and Air Quality
Air scrubbers, ozone or hydroxyl address odor where it begins, while vents receive inspection.
Biohazard Waste Disposal
Tracking paperwork follows sealed waste to a permitted facility where medical waste is treated.
Final Inspection and ATP Testing
