Health and safety
Biohazards in St. Francis Homes and Their Serious Health Risks
The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.
Limits of Household Cleaners for Biohazards
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.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Hepatitis A, salmonella and E. coli travel in raw sewage, while materials left wet may develop mold in 24 to 48 hours.
Bloodborne Pathogens
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.

First steps
Before Calling Biohazard Cleaners in St. Francis: What to Do First
Most people only face this once. These first steps protect your health, your insurance claim and the final cleanup cost.
Call (888) 440-9227- Call 911 if anyone is hurt or has died. The medical examiner, law enforcement and first responders need to clear the scene before any cleanup starts.
- Do not enter the affected area. Shut the door, and do not let pets or children enter. Avoid stepping in fluids or blood.
- Leave the cleanup to professionals. Using household cleaners may move contamination around and cause stains to set in walls and floors.
- Call your insurance company. Report the loss, ask about biohazard cleanup coverage and write down the claim number.
- Call for biohazard cleanup. A description of what occurred and where contamination is located lets the cleanup team make a plan.
