Biohazard cleaning explained
Biohazard Cleanup in Chicago: Meaning and Coverage
Biohazard cleanup safely removes and disinfects blood, tissue, bodily fluids and hazardous materials, then disposes of them following crime, death, accidents, hoarding or a sewage backup.
You may also hear it called trauma cleanup, bio cleanup, biohazard remediation or bio hazard cleaning. 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 of Biohazards in Chicagoland Homes and Businesses
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
Fluids, gases and bacteria from decomposition can penetrate flooring and move into other rooms through ventilation.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Raw sewage may carry hepatitis A, salmonella and E. coli. Materials that stay wet can support mold growth within 24 to 48 hours.
Bloodborne Pathogens
Blood may contain HIV, hepatitis C and hepatitis B. The CDC reports that surfaces can hold infectious hepatitis B for at least seven days.
Why Home Cleaning Products Cannot Remove Biohazards
Although bleach and sprays may clean on top, absorbed fluids remain in drywall, subfloor, carpet and its pad. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.

Call and On-Site Biohazard Assessment
Explain the situation. The scene is inspected and photographed by technicians before you approve the scope.
Containment of the Affected Area
Technicians enclose the affected area in plastic so other parts of the property stay separated.
Removal of Contaminated Materials

Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection
Cleaning every surface is followed by treatment with hospital-grade, EPA-registered disinfectant.
Odor Removal and Air Quality
Odor is treated at the source with air scrubbers, hydroxyl or ozone, and vents are checked.
Biohazard Waste Disposal
A permitted medical waste treatment facility receives the sealed material along with its tracking documents.
