Biohazard cleaning explained
Biohazard Cleanup in Lawrence: Meaning and Coverage
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.
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 From Biohazards in Greater Boston Businesses and Homes
Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis A and E. coli.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Fluids, gases and bacteria from decomposition can penetrate flooring and move into other rooms through ventilation.
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.
Why Household Cleaners Do Not Work
Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. Contamination left behind causes bacteria and odors to return, so decontamination services take out the source.
