Older adults make up about 14% of residents in Lansing, below the Michigan average, so calls come from a broad mix of situations, including accidents, crime scenes and rental turnovers. About 80% of homes in Lansing were built before 1980, and older carpet, subfloor and wood trim absorb fluids deeply.
Professional biohazard cleanup, remediation and decontamination services follow the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29 CFR 1910.1030). Technicians wear personal protective equipment (PPE), including respirators, gloves and disposable suits, and treat all blood and bodily fluids as potentially infectious materials that can carry hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV.
Hard surfaces get deep cleaning and a hospital-grade disinfectant from the EPA-registered list. Porous materials such as carpet, padding, mattresses and drywall that hold contamination are cut out and removed, because they cannot be made safe by wiping.
