Biohazards are biological materials that can spread disease and cause serious health risks. Cleanup technicians look at two things on every job: what kind of biohazard is present, and how far it has spread. Together they set the safety steps, the timeline and the cleanup cost.
It is not safe. Household cleaners do not reach blood and fluids that soak into carpet, padding, drywall and subfloor, and there are rules for disposing of biohazardous waste. A professional biohazard cleaner uses PPE, EPA-registered disinfectants and regulated medical waste disposal.
Respirators, gloves, face protection, boot covers and disposable suits make up the usual personal protective equipment (PPE). It is put on before entering the work area and disposed of as contaminated waste afterwards.
OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, sets rules for protective equipment, handling, training and disposal when workers face blood or other potentially infectious materials. Biohazard cleanup crews follow it on every job.
The lease and local law decide, but landlords commonly get biohazard cleanup done for the building. A renters insurance policy may cover the tenant's belongings. Talk to the landlord and your insurer early.
Usually it is better not to. The affected area is sealed off, odor and chemicals may be present, and the work is easier to do safely with people and pets elsewhere. The crew can say what is safe for your situation.
Biohazard cleaning is the safe removal of infectious or contaminated material and the disinfection of whatever it touched. Crews wear protective equipment, remove porous materials that cannot be made safe, and dispose of the waste under medical waste rules. It goes far beyond ordinary housecleaning.
