Biohazards are genuine health hazards that can cause serious illness, while visible contamination is seldom the full extent of the problem.
Raw sewage carries E. coli, salmonella and hepatitis A, and wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. Contamination left behind causes bacteria and odors to return, so decontamination services take out the source.
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
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.
