Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
Hepatitis C and B, along with HIV, can survive in blood. The CDC reports that hepatitis B can remain on surfaces for at least seven days.
Bleach and sprays clean the surface but leave fluids in carpet pad, subfloor and drywall. If contaminated matter is left behind, bacteria and odor return. Decontamination services remove that matter.
Raw sewage carries E. coli, salmonella and hepatitis A, and wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
