What biohazard cleanup covers:
The cleanup team looks at what happened, how far the contamination spread and what the surfaces are made of. That sets the plan, the protective gear and the products.
The team arrives in an unmarked vehicle and works quietly. Protective gear goes on at the door and the work area is isolated right away.
Porous materials that cannot be cleaned are cut away. The rest is scrubbed and sanitized in layers, so no spot is left to chance.
An EPA-registered disinfectant stays wet on each surface for its full contact time. The team treats odor, hauls waste and checks the work before leaving.
