Biohazard cleaning explained
Biohazard Cleanup in Gretna: Meaning and Coverage
The safe disposal, removal and disinfection of bodily fluids, blood, tissue and other hazardous materials after an accident, crime, death, sewage backup or hoarding situation is biohazard cleanup.
It is also called bio hazard cleaning, biohazard remediation, trauma cleanup or bio cleanup. Professional biohazard cleanup is more involved than deep cleaning. Technicians use personal protective equipment, locate every contaminated place, remove porous material that disinfection cannot save and treat affected areas until each reaches a livable condition.

Health and safety
Greater New Orleans Biohazards and Their Serious Health Risks in Homes and Workplaces
The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.
Why Household Cleaners Do Not Work
Surface cleaning with sprays or bleach misses fluids that have entered carpet padding, drywall and the subfloor. Contamination left behind causes bacteria and odors to return, so decontamination services take out the source.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis An and E. coli.
Bloodborne Pathogens
HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can live in blood. The CDC reports that hepatitis B can remain on surfaces for at least seven days.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Fluids, gases and bacteria from decomposition can penetrate flooring and move into other rooms through ventilation.
