Biohazard Disinfection, Decontamination, and Removal

Dangerous viruses and bacteria, such as COVID-19, Hepatitis B and C, and HIV, can potentially live on improperly disinfected surfaces for weeks. Blood and other bodily fluids can carry these viruses as well as other airborne contagions.

Steri-Clean uses our advanced, proprietary equipment, technology, and processes to restore and ensure the remediation of your biohazard emergency. Before they begin, our professional technicians test and inspect the scene to understand the scope of the situation. They are trained to thoroughly and skillfully clean and disinfect every area that has had possible contact with contaminants. When the scene is disinfected, a follow-up test can be performed to ensure proper procedures have been used and the area is once again “Safe to Occupy.”
The Biohazard Removal Process

Biohazard cleanup companies must comply with government regulations to ensure safety. Typically, a cleanup team begins by suiting up with PPE (personal protective equipment), such as a biohazard suit, mask, and gloves. The next step is to remove any materials affected by blood or other substances and store or dispose of them. Once any contaminated items have been removed, a team of experts cleans and decontaminates the space.

Because every situation is different, Steri-Clean ensures every technician has the training and tools to handle nearly any biohazard site. Our team of biohazard professionals follows step-by-step procedures to deliver the safest and most comprehensive removal services available. Here's how we do it:

  • ASSESS
    A trained professional completes a detailed walkthrough and OSHA-mandated employee-safety hazard assessment of the scene. This initial assessment is the foundation for ensuring safe and effective removal.
  • CONTROL AND SETUP
    Pathogens and contaminants can spread when not addressed quickly and completely. Per OSHA’s recommended cross-contamination protocol, we control the affected area by securing it and closing it off to other areas.
  • REMOVE
    Piece by piece, a team of experts removes items and materials contaminated by blood or other biohazards. This is the most critical step of the process, requiring experience and attention to detail to ensure nothing is missed.
  • CLEAN, DISINFECT, AND DEODORIZE
    After removal, the team cleans, disinfects, and deodorizes using the most effective cleaners and EPA-approved disinfectants to deliver the safest and most complete biohazard restoration.
  • VERIFY
    After cleanup and disinfection, the area is subjected to adenosine triphosphate (ATP) testing to ensure the highest levels of safety and decontamination.

There are no OSHA or other government regulations for providing biohazard cleanup services with compassion and respect—but there are at Steri-Clean.

What Are Biohazards?

Biohazard is the common abbreviation for biological hazard—potentially dangerous biological substances that pose a threat to humans and other animals. The most common biohazards are bacteria, viruses, and toxins. These are classified into four categories, from least to most dangerous.

  • BSL-1: Non-infectious bacteria, minor bacteria, and viruses that pose little danger.

  • BSL-2: Viruses and bacteria that can cause mild disease but are difficult to contract.

  • BSL-3: Bacteria and viruses that can be fatal but are easily managed with vaccines and other treatments.

  • BSL-4: Viruses and bacteria that can cause fatal diseases and for which there is no vaccine or other treatment.

According to Boston University, biohazardous waste poses a substantial hazard to human health or the environment when improperly treated, stored, transported, or disposed of. Professionally trained teams of technicians are required to combat the dangers of biohazards and ensure the safety of all parties involved.
