Biohazard cleaning explained
What Biohazard Cleanup in Memphis Means and Includes
Biohazard cleanup safely removes and disinfects blood, tissue, bodily fluids and hazardous materials, then disposes of them following crime, death, accidents, hoarding or a sewage backup.
Other names include biohazard remediation, bio hazard cleaning, bio cleanup and trauma cleanup. Professional biohazard cleanup goes beyond ordinary deep cleaning. Using personal protective equipment, technicians trace every place contamination reached, remove porous items beyond disinfection, then restore affected areas to a livable condition.

Health and safety
Serious Health Risks of Biohazards in Greater Memphis Homes and Businesses
Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Hepatitis A, salmonella and E. coli travel in raw sewage, while materials left wet may develop mold in 24 to 48 hours.
Limits of Household Cleaners for Biohazards
Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. If contaminated matter is left behind, bacteria and odor return. Decontamination services remove that matter.
Bloodborne Pathogens
Hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV can live in blood. According to the CDC, hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.
