Don’t Clean the Scene
When you call Flood Response about a biohazard situation, we know you’re overwhelmed, but we also know how important it is that you don’t attempt to clean up your property on your own. After a traumatic event resulting in biohazards like blood, bodily fluids, a decomposing body, or filth from hoarding, dangerous pathogens and microorganisms that can cause deadly diseases will be present. In addition, these substances may have contaminated carpet, walls, flooring, furniture, and other surfaces which will need to be sanitized and potentially removed. Which is why you need discreet, expertly trained technicians to handle proper cleanup and remediation.
Crime Scenes Require Delicate Handling
If the biohazardous contamination is related to a crime, Flood Response will coordinate with local law enforcement to ensure they have fully processed the scene before our cleanup team can begin. We can even arrive in unmarked vehicles upon request. Even more care needs to be taken in the cleanup process when there’s been a crime, as state and federal laws require that records of the items that were disposed of and where they are stored to be kept for at least 30 years.Â
