An average July high of 85 degrees in Dennison speeds up decomposition after a death. The sooner the scene is released and cleaned, the less the odor and fluids spread.
Cars, trucks and work vehicles can carry biohazards after an accident, assault or medical event. Vehicle cleanup removes contaminated upholstery and disinfects every surface and vent.
Failing septic systems and sewer backups push raw sewage, a Category 3 biohazard, into homes. Sewage cleanup removes contaminated materials and disinfects every surface.
When a death goes unnoticed for days, decomposition fluids reach flooring and subfloor and the odor spreads. Death cleanup removes the affected materials and treats the odor at the source.
Health risks vary by material. Blood and bodily fluids bring bloodborne pathogens, decomposition brings bacteria and odor, and waste and residue bring their own dangers. Job size then sets the scale of the response.
Regular cleaning removes dirt. Biohazard cleanup removes infectious material and reaches under and behind surfaces, using PPE, containment, EPA-registered disinfectants and regulated waste disposal. It follows safety rules that ordinary cleaning does not.
A biohazard is any biological material that can carry germs and make people sick. Common examples are blood, bodily fluids, tissue, sewage, used needles, animal waste and the fluids from decomposition. Anything that has touched them can also become contaminated.
The lease and local law decide, but landlords commonly get biohazard cleanup done for the building. A renters insurance policy may cover the tenant's belongings. Talk to the landlord and your insurer early.
Biohazard cleanup is the removal, cleaning and disinfection of anything that can spread disease: blood, bodily fluids, tissue, decomposition, human and animal waste, raw sewage, sharps and drug residue. It covers crime scene cleanup, unattended death cleanup, trauma scene cleanup, suicide cleanup, hoarding cleanup and infectious disease disinfection.
It is not safe. Household cleaners do not reach blood and fluids that soak into carpet, padding, drywall and subfloor, and there are rules for disposing of biohazardous waste. A professional biohazard cleaner uses PPE, EPA-registered disinfectants and regulated medical waste disposal.
Many jobs are priced by the scope of the work rather than as one simple hourly rate. The type of biohazard, the size of the area, the materials removed and waste disposal set the total. Ask the cleanup team how the cost is worked out.
