Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Hepatitis C and B, along with HIV, can survive in blood. According to the CDC, hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days.
Bleach and sprays clean the surface but leave fluids in carpet pad, subfloor and drywall. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.
Hepatitis A, salmonella and E. coli travel in raw sewage, while materials left wet may develop mold in 24 to 48 hours.
Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.

Biological materials that can cause disease are biohazards, including used needles, raw sewage, tissue, blood, bodily fluids, and human or animal waste.
