Biohazard removal services in Homestead Base and the surrounding areas cover crime scenes, traumatic events, hoarding, sewage and hazardous waste.

Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Bleach and sprays clean the surface but leave fluids in carpet pad, subfloor and drywall. Contamination left behind causes bacteria and odors to return, so decontamination services take out the source.
Salmonella, E. coli and hepatitis A are risks in raw sewage, and moisture may lead to mold on materials within 24 to 48 hours.
Blood may contain HIV, hepatitis C and hepatitis B. The CDC reports that surfaces can hold infectious hepatitis B for at least seven days.
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
