People can become seriously ill because biohazards are health hazards, and contamination often extends beyond the areas you can see.
Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis A and E. coli.
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
Hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV can live in blood. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.
Surface cleaning with sprays or bleach misses fluids that have entered carpet padding, drywall and the subfloor. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.

Say what happened. After technicians photograph and inspect the scene, they agree on the scope with you.
Technicians enclose the affected area in plastic so other parts of the property stay separated.
After infectious materials soak into carpet, pad, drywall or similar porous items, the affected pieces are removed and sealed for medical waste, so no affected material is left behind.
Cleaning every surface is followed by treatment with hospital-grade, EPA-registered disinfectant.
Treatment reaches the source of odors with hydroxyl, air scrubbers or ozone, followed by a check of the vents.
Sealed waste goes to a permitted medical waste treatment facility, with tracking paperwork.
The space is inspected and, where appropriate, ATP tested to confirm a livable condition, and documentation and photos are prepared for your claim.
Rebuilding areas where drywall or floors were taken out can be done by your contractor or the insurer's vendor.
