Biohazards are genuine health hazards that can cause serious illness, while visible contamination is seldom the full extent of the problem.
Hepatitis A, salmonella and E. coli travel in raw sewage, while materials left wet may develop mold in 24 to 48 hours.
Although bleach and sprays may clean on top, absorbed fluids remain in drywall, subfloor, carpet and its pad. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.
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. The CDC reports that hepatitis B can remain on surfaces for at least seven days.
