Health and safety

Why Household Biohazards Pose Serious Health Risks in Hemlock

The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.

Limits of Household Cleaners for Biohazards

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

During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.

Bloodborne Pathogens

HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can live in blood. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.

Sewage, Bacteria and Mold

Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis A and E. coli.

First steps

What You Should Do Before Contacting Hemlock Biohazard Cleaners

This is a one-time experience for most people. Your health, claim and final cleanup cost are protected by the first actions you take.

Call (888) 440-9227
  1. Contact 911 for any injury or death. Before cleanup can start, the medical examiner or coroner, along with law enforcement and first responders, must release the location.
  2. Do not enter the affected area. Keep pets and children away after closing the door. Keep your feet away from blood and fluids.
  3. Leave the cleanup to professionals. Ordinary household products can spread contaminants and fix stains into walls or flooring.
  4. Call your insurance company. Tell your insurer about the loss, ask whether biohazard cleanup is covered and record your claim number.
  5. Call for biohazard cleanup. A description of what occurred and where contamination is located lets the cleanup team make a plan.
Step by step

From Start to Finish, Biohazard Clean Up in Hemlock

The biohazard cleanup process uses a safe, set sequence for every job, from your first phone conversation to the closing inspection.

  1. Call and On-Site Biohazard Assessment

    Explain the situation. After technicians photograph and inspect the scene, they agree on the scope with you.

  2. Containment of the Affected Area

    To prevent contamination from moving elsewhere, the affected area is closed off using plastic sheeting.

  3. Removal of Contaminated Materials

    After infectious materials soak into carpet, pad, drywall or similar porous items, the affected pieces are removed and sealed for medical waste, so no affected material is left behind.

  4. Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection

    Each surface receives cleaning and an EPA-registered disinfectant made for hospital use.

  5. Odor Removal and Air Quality

    Air scrubbers, ozone or hydroxyl address odor where it begins, while vents receive inspection.

  6. Biohazard Waste Disposal

    Tracking paperwork follows sealed waste to a permitted facility where medical waste is treated.

  7. Final Inspection and ATP Testing

    A final check, with ATP testing when necessary, confirms a livable condition. You then receive records and photographs for the claim.

  8. Repairs and Back to Normal

    A contractor you choose, or one used by your insurance company, can restore flooring and drywall that were removed.
