Health and safety
Biohazard Serious Health Risks in Chicagoland Homes and Workplaces
Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Bloodborne Pathogens
Blood may contain HIV, hepatitis C and hepatitis B. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.
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.
Why Home Cleaning Products Cannot Remove Biohazards
Surface cleaning with sprays or bleach misses fluids that have entered carpet padding, drywall and the subfloor. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.
