Biohazards That Affect Homes and Businesses in Kings County

Hoarding and squalor

Hoarder homes can hide rotting food, animal waste, mold and pests, along with fire and structural hazards. Hoarding cleanup sorts belongings and restores a livable condition.

Vehicles with blood or fluids

Cars, trucks and work vehicles can carry biohazards after an accident, assault or medical event. Vehicle cleanup removes contaminated upholstery and disinfects every surface and vent.

Rodent droppings, guano and dead animals

Attics, barns and sheds can hold droppings, guano and carcasses that carry disease. Careful removal and disinfection protect the people who go back in.

Flood and storm sewage

Kings County has a Very High river flood risk rating from FEMA. Floodwater mixes with sewage, and anything it touches needs full biohazard cleaning, not just drying.

Vacant houses and break-ins

With a vacancy rate of 9% in New York, empty buildings can collect animal waste, drug paraphernalia and storm damage that nobody sees until later.

Infectious disease, drugs and sharps

Homes, churches and businesses may need infectious disease disinfection, needle and sharps cleanup, or meth lab and fentanyl decontamination after a property is released.

Health Risks of Biohazards and How Cleanup Jobs Are Sized

Not every biohazard looks the same or carries the same risk. A cleanup team sorts the problem by type and by size, and that sorting decides the protective gear, the method and the budget.

Types of biohazards and their health risks

  • Blood and bodily fluids. Can carry bloodborne pathogens such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV, even after drying.
  • Decomposition. Fluids soak into flooring and subfloor, attract insects and leave a strong death odor.
  • Sharps and medical waste. Needles and soiled materials that must leave as regulated medical waste.
  • Sewage, animal waste and drug residue. Bacteria such as E. coli, hantavirus from rodent droppings, and meth or fentanyl residue.

Job sizes

  • Small: One spot or one surface, such as a blood spill, often done in a few hours.
  • Medium: One room, with carpet, padding or drywall removed.
  • Large: Several rooms, or fluids that reached the subfloor or HVAC.
  • Whole property: Hoarder houses, meth labs or full building decontamination.

Safety Steps to Take While Waiting for Biohazard Cleanup

  1. For a suicide crisis, call or text 988, the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, which gives confidential support day or night.
  2. Call the homeowners or renters insurance company and write down the claim number.
  3. Plan access for the cleanup crew: a key, a lockbox or a property manager.
  4. Take photos of the damage only if it is safe and allowed, and keep a copy of any police report number.
  5. Tell the cleanup specialist about pets, valuables, documents and keepsakes so they can be protected.
  6. Call (877) 812-4220 and describe what happened. A cleanup specialist can explain the next steps before anyone enters.

Biohazard Cleaning FAQs for Carroll Gardens / Cobble Hill / Gowanus / Red Hook Homes and Businesses

Do biohazard cleaners remove furniture and carpet?

Only what cannot be made safe. Porous items such as carpet, padding, mattresses and upholstered furniture that soaked up fluids are usually removed. Hard surfaces and many belongings can be cleaned and disinfected instead.

What is a biohazard?

A biohazard is any biological material that can carry germs and make people sick. Common examples are blood, bodily fluids, tissue, sewage, used needles, animal waste and the fluids from decomposition. Anything that has touched them can also become contaminated.

How long do diseases last in dried blood?

It varies by the germ. Hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days, and other pathogens last for different periods. Because nobody can tell by looking, all blood is treated as infectious until it has been properly disinfected.

Does homeowners insurance cover death cleanup?

Many policies do cover cleanup after a death in the home, but some exclude certain causes or situations. Read the policy or ask the insurer which parts apply. Call the insurance company before cleanup starts, and keep photos and receipts for the claim.

What is the difference between biohazard cleanup and regular cleaning?

Regular cleaning removes dirt. Biohazard cleanup removes infectious material and reaches under and behind surfaces, using PPE, containment, EPA-registered disinfectants and regulated waste disposal. It follows safety rules that ordinary cleaning does not.

What do biohazard cleaners wear?

Respirators, gloves, face protection, boot covers and disposable suits make up the usual personal protective equipment (PPE). It is put on before entering the work area and disposed of as contaminated waste afterwards.

Does flooding in Kings County lead to sewage cleanup?

It can. Kings County has a Very High river flood risk rating from FEMA. Wherever floodwater or a sewer backup enters a home, the water is treated as Category 3 and needs full cleaning and disinfection.

What should tenants in New York do after a biohazard event?

Tell the landlord and the renters insurer right away. With renters in about 67% of homes in New York, many rentals have a process for this. The building is usually the owner's job, and belongings may fall under the tenant's policy.
