Biohazard cleaning explained
Biohazard Cleanup in Chicago: Meaning and Coverage
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 goes further than deep cleaning: technicians wear personal protective equipment, find every place contamination reached, remove porous materials that cannot be disinfected and treat the affected areas until they are back to a livable condition.

Health and safety
Serious Health Risks of Biohazards in Chicagoland Homes and Businesses
Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Why Household Cleaners Do Not Work
Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.
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.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Raw sewage carries E. coli, salmonella and hepatitis A, and wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Decomposition creates bacteria, gases and fluids that enter floors, then travel along the ventilation system into nearby rooms.
