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.
You may also hear it called trauma cleanup, bio cleanup, biohazard remediation or bio hazard cleaning. Professional biohazard cleanup goes further than deep cleaning: technicians wear personal protective equipment, find every place contamination reached, remove porous materials that cannot be disinfected and treat the affected areas until they are back to a livable condition.

Health and safety
Greater Memphis Biohazards and Their Serious Health Risks in Homes and Workplaces
Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Why Regular Household Cleaners Are Not Enough
Bleach and sprays clean the surface but leave fluids in carpet pad, subfloor and drywall. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Decomposition creates bacteria, gases and fluids that enter floors, then travel along the ventilation system into nearby rooms.
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.
Bloodborne Pathogens
HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can live in blood. The CDC reports that hepatitis B can remain on surfaces for at least seven days.
