Biohazard cleaning explained
Biohazard Cleanup in New Orleans: What It Is and What It Covers
Biohazard cleanup is the safe removal, disinfection and disposal of blood, bodily fluids, tissue and other infectious or hazardous materials after a death, a crime, an accident, a hoarding situation or a sewage backup.
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
Serious Health Risks of Biohazards in New Orleans area Homes and Businesses
Biohazards are genuine health hazards that can cause serious illness, while visible contamination is seldom the full extent of the problem.
Limits of Household Cleaners for Biohazards
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.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Salmonella, E. coli and hepatitis A are risks in raw sewage, and moisture may lead to mold on materials within 24 to 48 hours.
Bloodborne Pathogens
HIV and hepatitis B and C may remain in blood. Hepatitis B may survive on a surface for at least seven days, according to the CDC.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
