Health and safety
Serious Health Risks Linked to Biohazards in Greater Richmond Businesses and Homes
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
Raw sewage carries hepatitis A, E. coli and salmonella, while wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Bloodborne Pathogens
Blood can support hepatitis C, HIV and hepatitis B. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive 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.
Why Regular Household Cleaners Are Not Enough
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.
