Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Decomposition creates bacteria, gases and fluids that enter floors, then travel along the ventilation system into nearby rooms.
Surface cleaning with sprays or bleach misses fluids that have entered carpet padding, drywall and the subfloor. If contaminated matter is left behind, bacteria and odor return. Decontamination services remove that matter.
Salmonella, E. coli and hepatitis A are risks in raw sewage, and moisture may lead to mold on materials within 24 to 48 hours.
Hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV can live in blood. The CDC reports that surfaces can hold infectious hepatitis B for at least seven days.
