Biohazard cleaning explained
What Biohazard Cleanup in Chicago Means and Includes
After crimes, deaths, accidents, a sewage backup or hoarding situations, biohazard cleanup means safe removal, disinfection and disposal of tissue, blood, bodily fluids and infectious or hazardous materials.
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.

Health and safety
Serious Health Risks From Biohazards in Chicagoland Businesses and Homes
Biohazards are genuine health hazards that can cause serious illness, while visible contamination is seldom the full extent of the problem.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
E. coli, hepatitis A and salmonella may be present in raw sewage, while damp materials may develop mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
Bloodborne Pathogens
Blood may contain HIV, hepatitis C and hepatitis B. According to the CDC, hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days.
Why Household Cleaners Do Not Work
Sprays and bleach treat the visible surface yet do not reach fluids below carpet, inside padding, under floors or within drywall. If contaminated matter is left behind, bacteria and odor return. Decontamination services remove that matter.
