Common Questions About Urine and Feces Cleanup in Elkins

What should I do before the cleaners get there?

Call 911 first if anyone is hurt or ill. Keep people and pets out of the area, open a window if you can, and do not spray or scrub the waste. Take photos for insurance and note what the waste touched.

Can breathing in feces fumes be harmful?

Strong fumes can cause headaches, nausea and irritation, especially in a closed room. Long-term exposure in a heavily contaminated home is a health concern. Leave the room, ventilate it and have a cleanup team remove the source.

Why does urine smell keep coming back?

Urine soaks into padding, subfloor and mattress layers, and bacteria keep releasing odor from there. Surface cleaning does not reach it. Removing the soaked materials is usually what ends the smell.

Is poop a biohazard?

Yes. Human waste can spread germs through touch, dust and contaminated surfaces. A small accident on a hard floor can be cleaned with gloves and a disinfectant, but large amounts call for a human feces cleanup team.

Is human feces toxic to breathe?

The odor is unpleasant and can irritate the nose, throat and eyes. Dried waste can release particles when disturbed, so avoid sweeping or scrubbing it. Open a window if you can and call a cleanup team for large amounts.

Is human feces a biohazard?

Yes. Human feces can carry bacteria and viruses such as E. coli, hepatitis A and norovirus. In large amounts, or when it soaks into building materials, it is cleaned with protective gear and disinfected like any other biohazard.
