Burton Biohazard Remediation Questions, Answered
What is the difference between biohazard cleanup and decontamination?
Cleanup removes blood, bodily fluids and other material from a scene. Decontamination makes the cleaned surfaces and the space safe again through cleaning and disinfecting. Most jobs include both, and the crew can explain how it treats each.
What is considered a biological hazard?
A biological hazard is any living organism or material from one that can harm health. Examples are bacteria, viruses, mold, blood, bodily fluids, sewage and animal waste. Chemicals and radiation are a different type of hazard.
Does decontamination remove odors?
It does when the source is removed. Smells from sewage, fluids or decay live in porous materials and subfloors, so crews take those out and treat the air. Air fresheners cover a smell for only a short time.
Can carpet and mattresses be saved?
Sometimes, but often not. Porous materials soak up fluids, and germs can remain deep inside where disinfectant cannot reach. The team looks at each item and explains which can be saved. Items that cannot be cleaned are removed, sealed and hauled away.
What if the contamination came from a death or a crime?
The crew treats the space with care and keeps the details private. Law enforcement must release a crime scene before cleanup begins. If you or someone you know is struggling, call or text 988 any time.
What should I do before the crew arrives?
Keep people and pets out of the affected area. Do not wipe, vacuum or scrub anything. Take photos from a safe distance for your insurer, and call 911 first if anyone is in danger.
