Under certain circumstances, when there have been no known or suspected cases of infection with the virus, the application of a disinfectant to the environment by fogging may be all that is recommended.  Where there have been known or suspected cases of an infected person present in the environment, a more thorough approach is recommended, which includes physical removal of soils by wiping, followed by the application of disinfectants. A higher level of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is necessary for this level of cleaning.

 Our team is well prepared for such a time as now:

  1. We are trained and certified in Applied Microbial Remediation by the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification (IICRC)

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.
