The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.
Hepatitis A, salmonella and E. coli travel in raw sewage, while materials left wet may develop mold in 24 to 48 hours.
Decomposition creates bacteria, gases and fluids that enter floors, then travel along the ventilation system into nearby rooms.
Bleach and sprays clean the surface but leave fluids in carpet pad, subfloor and drywall. Contamination left behind causes bacteria and odors to return, so decontamination services take out the source.
Blood can support hepatitis C, HIV and hepatitis B. The CDC reports that hepatitis B can remain on surfaces for at least seven days.
