Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis A and E. coli.
HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can live in blood. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.
Bleach and sprays clean the surface but leave fluids in carpet pad, subfloor and drywall. Contamination left behind causes bacteria and odors to return, so decontamination services take out the source.
Fluids, gases and bacteria from decomposition can penetrate flooring and move into other rooms through ventilation.
