Why Choose SERVPRO for Biohazard Cleaning Services?

A biohazard is, as the name suggests, any biological danger. These dangers, or hazards, are substances like human blood and fluids (or related substances), animal waste, microbiological wastes, pathological wastes and medical sharps.

Exposure to biological and chemical contaminants can pose serious health consequences. For this reason there are a lot of regulations on how to properly dispose of and address biological waste. Failing to take a biohazard seriously creates a more dangerous situation and contributes to unhealthy and dangerous environments.

Our teams at SERVPRO of Arlington Heights / Prospect Heights have received specific training to address biohazard situations safely and effectively. With the right tools and experience we can transform these unhealthy environments into clean, healthy and safe spaces.

What To Do When You Have A Biohazard Emergency

The need for biohazard or hazmat cleaning usually comes with little or no warning. And it can be truly overwhelming.

Dealing with hazardous materials is best left to experienced, certified professionals. But if you find yourself in such a traumatic incident, here are a few important things to remember.

Call Emergency Personnel

Emergency services should be called in a life-threatening situation.

2.svg

Do Not Attempt Any Cleaning Yourself

Cleaning of any kind could interfere with a possible investigation and expose you to harmful contaminated materials.

3.svg

Stay Out Of The Area

Stay out of any affected areas. There may be potentially dangerous hazardous materials left behind.

4.svg

Treat All Bodily Fluids As Contaminated

Do not touch or handle items that might be contaminated with extremely harmful bodily fluids. And always treat bodily fluids as if they’re contaminated.
