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. 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.

The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.
Sprays and bleach treat the visible surface yet do not reach fluids below carpet, inside padding, under floors or within drywall. Contamination left behind causes bacteria and odors to return, so decontamination services take out the source.
HIV and hepatitis B and C may remain in blood. The CDC reports that surfaces can hold infectious hepatitis B for at least seven days.
Fluids, gases and bacteria from decomposition can penetrate flooring and move into other rooms through ventilation.
Salmonella, E. coli and hepatitis A are risks in raw sewage, and moisture may lead to mold on materials within 24 to 48 hours.
