Biohazard cleaning explained
Biohazard Cleanup in Glenwood Arts District: What It Is and What It Covers

Health and safety
Biohazards in Glenwood Arts District Homes and Their Serious Health Risks
The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.
Why Regular Household Cleaners Are Not Enough
Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. If contaminated matter is left behind, bacteria and odor return. Decontamination services remove that matter.
Bloodborne Pathogens
Blood can support hepatitis C, HIV and hepatitis B. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Hepatitis A, salmonella and E. coli travel in raw sewage, while materials left wet may develop mold in 24 to 48 hours.

First steps
What to Do First Before Calling Biohazard Cleaners in Glenwood Arts District
For most people, this happens only once. These first steps protect your health, your insurance claim and the final cleanup cost.
Call (888) 440-9227- Phone 911 if someone is hurt or has died. Wait for first responders, law enforcement and the medical examiner or coroner to release the area before beginning cleanup.
- Do not enter the affected area. Keep pets and children away after closing the door. Never cross an area containing blood or body fluids.
- Avoid cleaning the area on your own. Using household cleaners may move contamination around and cause stains to set in walls and floors.
- Call your insurance company. Ask whether biohazard cleanup is covered when you report the loss, then note the insurance claim number.
- Call for biohazard cleanup. A description of what occurred and where contamination is located lets the cleanup team make a plan.

Each surface receives cleaning and an EPA-registered disinfectant made for hospital use.
Odor Removal and Air Quality
Odor is treated at the source with air scrubbers, hydroxyl or ozone, and vents are checked.
Biohazard Waste Disposal
Waste is sealed, tracked with paperwork and taken to a permitted facility for medical waste treatment.
Final Inspection and ATP Testing
The area is checked, including ATP testing where needed, so the space is back to a livable condition, and you get photos and records for your claim.
Repairs and Back to Normal
Removed flooring or drywall can be rebuilt by your contractor or your insurer's vendor.
