2. Contain and protect
Crew members put on protective gear for skin, eyes and lungs. The work area is closed off, and people and pets are kept out.
3. Remove, then clean
Visible material and items that cannot be saved are removed and sealed. Every surface is then cleaned with detergent, because residue shields germs from disinfectant.
4. Treat, deodorize and hand off
Disinfectant goes on every cleaned surface, and odor is treated at its source. The team walks the owner through the finished space and the records.

How do I choose among biohazard remediation companies?
