Biohazard cleaning explained
What Biohazard Cleanup in Chicago Means and Includes
Biohazard cleanup is the safe removal, disinfection and disposal of blood, bodily fluids, tissue and other infectious or hazardous materials after a death, a crime, an accident, a hoarding situation or a sewage backup.

Health and safety
Serious Health Risks From Biohazards in Chicagoland Businesses and Homes
People can become seriously ill because biohazards are health hazards, and contamination often extends beyond the areas you can see.
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.
Bloodborne Pathogens
Hepatitis C, HIV and hepatitis B can be present in blood. Hepatitis B may survive on a surface for at least seven days, according to the CDC.
Why Household Cleaners Do Not Work
Bleach and sprays clean the surface but leave fluids in carpet pad, subfloor and drywall. Contamination left behind causes bacteria and odors to return, so decontamination services take out the source.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Fluids, gases and bacteria from decomposition can penetrate flooring and move into other rooms through ventilation.
