Biohazard Cleanup in Chicago: What It Is and What It Covers
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.

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
Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Raw sewage carries E. coli, salmonella and hepatitis A, and wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Bloodborne Pathogens
HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can live in blood. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.
Why Home Cleaning Products Cannot Remove Biohazards
Surface cleaning with sprays or bleach misses fluids that have entered carpet padding, drywall and the subfloor. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Fluids, gases and bacteria from decomposition can penetrate flooring and move into other rooms through ventilation.
