The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.
Blood can support hepatitis C, HIV and hepatitis B. Hepatitis B may survive on a surface for at least seven days, according to the CDC.
Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.
Raw sewage carries hepatitis A, E. coli and salmonella, while wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Although bleach and sprays may clean on top, absorbed fluids remain in drywall, subfloor, carpet and its pad. Contamination left behind causes bacteria and odors to return, so decontamination services take out the source.
