The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.
Hepatitis A, salmonella and E. coli travel in raw sewage, while materials left wet may develop mold in 24 to 48 hours.
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can live in blood. According to the CDC, hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days.
Surface cleaning with sprays or bleach misses fluids that have entered carpet padding, drywall and the subfloor. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.
