Biohazard cleaning explained
What Biohazard Cleanup in Chicago Means and Includes
After crimes, deaths, accidents, a sewage backup or hoarding situations, biohazard cleanup means safe removal, disinfection and disposal of tissue, blood, bodily fluids and infectious or hazardous materials.
It is also called bio hazard cleaning, biohazard remediation, trauma cleanup or bio cleanup. Professional biohazard cleanup is more involved than deep cleaning. Technicians use personal protective equipment, locate every contaminated place, remove porous material that disinfection cannot save and treat affected areas until each reaches a livable condition.

Health and safety
Serious Health Risks From Biohazards in Chicagoland Businesses and Homes
People can become seriously ill because biohazards are health hazards, and contamination often extends beyond the areas you can see.
Bloodborne Pathogens
Hepatitis C and B, along with HIV, can survive in blood. Hepatitis B may survive on a surface for at least seven days, according to the CDC.
Why Home Cleaning Products Cannot Remove Biohazards
Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Raw sewage carries hepatitis A, E. coli and salmonella, while wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.

Step by step
How Biohazard Clean Up Works in Chicagoland, Step by Step
Each job follows the same safe biohazard cleanup process, beginning with your call and ending with the final inspection.
Call and On-Site Biohazard Assessment
You start by describing the situation. Technicians examine and photograph the area, then confirm the work scope with you.
Containment of the Affected Area
Technicians enclose the affected area in plastic so other parts of the property stay separated.
Removal of Contaminated Materials
After infectious materials soak into carpet, pad, drywall or similar porous items, the affected pieces are removed and sealed for medical waste, so no affected material is left behind.
Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection
Every surface is cleaned and treated with EPA-registered, hospital-grade disinfectant.
Odor Removal and Air Quality
Treatment reaches the source of odors with hydroxyl, air scrubbers or ozone, followed by a check of the vents.
Biohazard Waste Disposal
Sealed waste goes to a permitted medical waste treatment facility, with tracking paperwork.
Final Inspection and ATP Testing
The area is checked, including ATP testing where needed, so the space is back to a livable condition, and you get photos and records for your claim.
Repairs and Back to Normal
Rebuilding areas where drywall or floors were taken out can be done by your contractor or the insurer's vendor.
