What biohazard cleanup covers:
The crew leader asks about the people, the property and any concerns about privacy. Equipment is packed to match the type of contamination.
Crews put on PPE, close off the affected area and keep people and pets out. Air movement is limited so germs are not carried into other rooms.
Crews in protective suits remove contaminated materials and clean hard surfaces from the outside of the stain inward. Waste is sealed as it is collected.
The crew goes through the finished space with the owner or manager. Waste leaves in sealed containers and the property is ready for the next step.
