Health and safety
Understanding Serious Health Risks Across Chicagoland Properties
Biohazards are genuine health hazards that can cause serious illness, while visible contamination is seldom the full extent of the problem.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
Limits of Household Cleaners for Biohazards
Sprays and bleach treat the visible surface yet do not reach fluids below carpet, inside padding, under floors or within drywall. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Raw sewage carries E. coli, salmonella and hepatitis A, and wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Bloodborne Pathogens
Hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV can live in blood. According to the CDC, hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days.
