Biohazard Decontamination FAQs for Millsboro and Sussex County

What is considered a biological hazard?

A biological hazard is any living organism or material from one that can harm health. Examples are bacteria, viruses, mold, blood, bodily fluids, sewage and animal waste. Chemicals and radiation are a different type of hazard.

How do I choose among biohazard remediation companies?

Ask what training the crew has, how it deals with waste, whether it works with insurers and what records you get. Request references and a clear description of the steps. Then decide whether the company fits your needs.

Is it safe to stay in the house during decontamination?

Usually it is better not to. The affected area is sealed off, products are in use and the air is being managed. Ask the crew whether other parts of the house can stay in use.

How much does biohazard decontamination cost?

The price depends on the size of the area, the materials, the type of contamination, waste, odor treatment and travel. The team can give a figure after it sees the site or hears the details. Insurance may cover part of it.

Is bleach enough to disinfect?

Not always. Different germs need different products, and the product label says what it targets and how long it must stay wet. Never mix bleach with other cleaners, because some mixes make harmful gases. A local team picks products that match the germs involved.

Do I need to be home during the work?

In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask how access and keys can be arranged. If you are out of town, say so when you call.
