Biohazard Cleanup Tips & Techniques


In-Depth Techniques in Biohazard Cleanup

PuroClean uses advanced and state-of-the-art methods to ensure complete decontamination:

  • ATP Testing: Verifies the presence of organic residues to ensure thorough cleaning.
  • HEPA Filtration: Removes airborne contaminants and pathogens during cleanup.
  • Hospital-Grade Disinfectants: EPA-approved solutions kill viruses, bacteria, and bloodborne pathogens.
  • Cross-Contamination Prevention: Strict zoning and PPE procedures prevent the spread of contaminants.
  • Hazardous Waste Disposal: Materials are disposed of in accordance with OSHA and EPA regulations.

On top of biohazard and trauma scene cleanups, Puroclean guarantees the same level of top-notch strategy when it comes to its other services in your area, such as its water damage restoration in Swansea and its nearby communities, or its fire damage repair in O’fallon and beyond.

PuroClean RapidDefense™ Program

To further enhance protection, PuroClean also offers the PuroClean RapidDefense™ Program, an advanced preventative cleaning system designed for high-risk environments such as offices, healthcare facilities, schools, and public venues. This program uses EPA-approved, hospital-grade disinfectants specifically applied to high-touch and high-traffic areas to actively inhibit the spread of pathogens, including Influenza, Norovirus, and COVID-19 (2019 Novel Coronavirus). These disinfecting procedures utilize EPA–registered solutions proven safe and effective, offering up to 90 days of residual protection. Engaging PuroClean’s RapidDefense™ Program before an outbreak occurs helps ensure the cleanest, safest environment possible for everyone who enters your space.

DIY Tips & Preventative Measures for Biohazard Cleanup

While professional assistance is essential for major incidents, here are some preventative and minor cleanup tips:

  • Always wear protective gear when handling biological material. Use gloves, masks, and eye protection to reduce exposure risks. Ensure that any contaminants are treated as potentially infectious.
  • Disinfect high-touch surfaces regularly. Clean areas like doorknobs, light switches, and railings with EPA-registered disinfectants to prevent bacterial or viral spread.
  • Contain spills immediately. If bodily fluids are involved, isolate the area and avoid spreading the contamination. Use absorbent materials and never wipe or smear biological fluids.
  • Do not attempt DIY cleanup for crime scenes or trauma sites. These situations often involve pathogens and carry emotional distress. Professionals like PuroClean ensure safe, legal, and complete cleanup.
  • Maintain proper sanitation and hygiene protocols. Regular cleaning schedules and awareness of risk zones can prevent biohazard accumulation in homes or workplaces.

For biohazard emergencies, rely on the highly trained and certified experts at PuroClean.
