Health and safety
Goochland Home Biohazards and Serious Health Risks
People can become seriously ill because biohazards are health hazards, and contamination often extends beyond the areas you can see.
Why Household Cleaners Do Not Work
Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. Contamination left behind causes bacteria and odors to return, so decontamination services take out the source.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Hepatitis A, salmonella and E. coli travel in raw sewage, while materials left wet may develop mold in 24 to 48 hours.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
Bloodborne Pathogens
HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can live in blood. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.

First steps
What You Should Do Before Contacting Goochland Biohazard Cleaners
Most people only face this once. Following the right opening steps helps protect your health while preserving your claim and cleanup cost.
Call (888) 440-9227- Contact 911 for any injury or death. Before cleanup can start, the medical examiner, along with law enforcement and first responders, must release the location.
- Keep away from the affected area. Close the door and keep children and pets away. Do not walk through blood or fluids.
