Biohazards are genuine health hazards that can cause serious illness, while visible contamination is seldom the full extent of the problem.
Raw sewage carries E. coli, salmonella and hepatitis A, and wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
Blood can support hepatitis C, HIV and hepatitis B. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.
Although bleach and sprays may clean on top, absorbed fluids remain in drywall, subfloor, carpet and its pad. If contaminated matter is left behind, bacteria and odor return. Decontamination services remove that matter.
