Health and safety
Biohazards in East Dundee Homes and Their Serious Health Risks
People can become seriously ill because biohazards are health hazards, and contamination often extends beyond the areas you can see.
Why Household Cleaners Do Not Work
Although bleach and sprays may clean on top, absorbed fluids remain in drywall, subfloor, carpet and its pad. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.
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.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.
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.

First steps
What You Should Do Before Contacting East Dundee Biohazard Cleaners
Few people encounter this more than once. These first steps protect your health, your insurance claim and the final cleanup cost.
Call (888) 351-0904- Call 911 if anyone is hurt or has died. Wait for first responders, law enforcement and the medical examiner to release the area before beginning cleanup.
- Remain outside the affected area. Block access for children and pets, then close the door. Keep your feet away from blood and fluids.

- Call your insurance company. Ask whether biohazard cleanup is covered when you report the loss, then note the insurance claim number.
- Call for biohazard cleanup. A description of what occurred and where contamination is located lets the cleanup team make a plan.

The biohazard cleanup process uses a safe, set sequence for every job, from your first phone conversation to the closing inspection.
Call and On-Site Biohazard Assessment
Explain the situation. You and the technicians agree on the scope after they inspect the scene and take photos.
Containment of the Affected Area
Plastic sheeting isolates the affected area and stops contaminants from reaching additional rooms.
Removal of Contaminated Materials
When infectious materials enter porous items such as drywall, carpet or pad, those items are cut away and contained as medical waste, with nothing left behind.
Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection
Each surface receives cleaning and an EPA-registered disinfectant made for hospital use.
Odor Removal and Air Quality
Odor is treated at the source with air scrubbers, hydroxyl or ozone, and vents are checked.
Biohazard Waste Disposal
Waste is sealed, tracked with paperwork and taken to a permitted facility for medical waste treatment.
Final Inspection and ATP Testing
Checks may include ATP testing when needed to verify a livable condition. Photos and supporting records are then given to you for insurance.
Repairs and Back to Normal
Removed flooring or drywall can be rebuilt by your contractor or your insurer's vendor.
