The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.
Hepatitis C and B, along with HIV, can survive in blood. According to the CDC, hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days.
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. If contaminated matter is left behind, bacteria and odor return. Decontamination services remove that matter.
