Biohazard cleaning explained
Understanding Biohazard Cleanup and Its Scope in Lansing
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.
Other names include biohazard remediation, bio hazard cleaning, bio cleanup and trauma cleanup. Professional biohazard cleanup goes beyond ordinary deep cleaning. Using personal protective equipment, technicians trace every place contamination reached, remove porous items beyond disinfection, then restore affected areas to a livable condition.

Health and safety
Chicagoland Biohazards and Their Serious Health Risks in Homes and Workplaces
The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
Why Household Cleaners Do Not Work
Bleach and sprays clean the surface but leave fluids in carpet pad, subfloor and drywall. If contaminated matter is left behind, bacteria and odor return. Decontamination services remove that matter.
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
HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can live in blood. The CDC reports that hepatitis B can remain on surfaces for at least seven days.
