What biohazard decontamination covers:
Germs travel past the visible stain. The crew checks under furniture, along baseboards and in the subfloor to learn where decontamination must reach.
Gear goes on, pets and residents stay out and the work zone is marked. Valuables and keepsakes are set aside for the family.
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.
The crew goes through the space with the owner and explains what was done. Waste leaves in sealed containers, and questions get plain answers.
