Lowell Biohazard Remediation Questions, Answered
Why does cleaning come before disinfecting?
Disinfectant does not work well on dirty surfaces, because residue can shield germs from the product. Crews remove visible material, clean every surface with detergent and then apply disinfectant for the contact time on its label. Skipping the cleaning step is a common reason a job fails.
Is it safe to stay in the house during decontamination?
Usually it is better not to. The affected area is sealed off, products are in use and the air is being managed. Ask the crew whether other parts of the house can stay in use.
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 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.
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.
Will the neighbors know?
Usually not. Crews arrive in unmarked vehicles, work quietly and keep details private. Tell the team if discretion matters, and it will plan around that.
