2. Contain the area
Barriers and floor covering protect clean rooms. Crew members wear PPE and change gear before leaving the zone.
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.

Do OSHA rules apply to biohazard decontamination?

How do I know the decontamination worked?
A good team inspects every treated surface, treats leftover odors and explains what it did. Some teams add swab tests. Ask what the final check includes and ask for a record of the work. Testing rules vary by place.

Can landlords order decontamination between tenants?
Yes. Property managers often call when a unit shows signs of bodily fluids, sewage or neglect. The lease and local law decide who pays, and the crew can provide photos and records for the owner.
