The safe disposal, removal and disinfection of bodily fluids, blood, tissue and other hazardous materials after an accident, crime, death, sewage backup or hoarding situation is biohazard cleanup.
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.
After traumatic events in Gentilly Woods, crime scene cleaning and other specialized cleaning can begin as soon as the property is released.

Crime scene cleaners aim to restore safety while giving families respectful, compassionate service.

People can become seriously ill because biohazards are health hazards, and contamination often extends beyond the areas you can see.
Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.
Hepatitis A, salmonella and E. coli travel in raw sewage, while materials left wet may develop mold in 24 to 48 hours.
HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can live in blood. According to the CDC, hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days.
Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.

The affected area is sealed off with plastic sheeting so contamination does not spread to other rooms.
To keep affected material from being left behind, technicians cut out carpet, pad, drywall and other porous items that absorbed infectious materials, then seal them as medical waste.
Cleaning every surface is followed by treatment with hospital-grade, EPA-registered disinfectant.
Odor is treated at the source with air scrubbers, hydroxyl or ozone, and vents are checked.
Sealed waste goes to a permitted medical waste treatment facility, with tracking paperwork.
A final check, with ATP testing when necessary, confirms a livable condition. You then receive records and photographs for the claim.
Rebuilding areas where drywall or floors were taken out can be done by your contractor or the insurer's vendor.
