Biohazard cleaning explained
Biohazard Cleanup in Louisville: What It Is and What It Covers
Biohazard cleanup safely removes and disinfects blood, tissue, bodily fluids and hazardous materials, then disposes of them following crime, death, accidents, hoarding or a sewage backup.
Other names include biohazard remediation, bio hazard cleaning, bio cleanup and trauma cleanup. Deep cleaning alone is not professional biohazard cleanup. Technicians wear personal protective equipment, track where contamination traveled, discard porous items beyond disinfection and treat all affected areas until the property returns to a livable condition.

Health and safety
Serious Health Risks From Biohazards in Greater Louisville 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 B, hepatitis C and HIV can live in blood. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.
Limits of Household Cleaners for Biohazards
Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. If contaminated matter is left behind, bacteria and odor return. Decontamination services remove that matter.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis A and E. coli.
