Our Biohazard Cleanup Process in Fargo, ND

  • Our process begins with a plan. We thoroughly assess the contamination and create a safe and effective biohazard remediation plan. 
  • All potentially infectious materials are carefully removed from the site. Hazardous medical waste is handled per OSHA regulations, appropriately processed, and sent to a licensed hazardous medical waste incinerator. 
  • Porous materials such as carpet and bedding are removed following industry standards and government regulations. All other non-hazardous affected materials are either removed or professionally decontaminated and sanitized. 
  • Remaining materials, such as drywall and flooring, may be sealed, usually for cosmetic reasons, to cover any stains from the incident.

Planning and Organization

To begin, we provide a full assessment of the incident and affected area(s). We will determine the level of containment needed and inform you of the action plan. 

Safety as a Priority

It is key to perform biohazard removal with special attention to safety and industry and OSHA standards. Our trained technicians wear special personal protective equipment to keep themselves safe. They also contain the area, taking the appropriate steps to keep you and your family or employees safe. 

Medical Waste Removal

Hazardous medical waste, such as spinal fluid, peritoneal fluid, amniotic fluid, and other bodily fluids, is handled following OSHA regulations. It’s then sent to a licensed hazardous medical waste incinerator.

Thorough Cleanup and Decontamination

All affected porous material will be removed per industry standards and state regulations. All other infectious material will be safely discarded as well. For non-porous surfaces, we will dry the affected area before applying a disinfectant. After allowing this to soak, we scrub, repeating the process to disinfect the space.

Deodorization

Typically, odors dissipate once the biohazard is cleaned and the area sanitized. However, our crew will determine whether further deodorization is necessary. If so, we use hydroxyls or ozone to eliminate the odor.

PuroClean RapidDefense™

PuroClean’s RapidDefense™ is designed to clean up and protect after MRSA, Influenza, or Norovirus contamination.

What is a biohazard?

Biohazards are any biological contaminants that risk carrying diseases, such as those found in sewage, mold, or viral or bacterial contamination, such as MRSA. Biohazards also include toxins found in decaying organisms, as well as bodily fluids.

Will my insurance cover crime scene cleanup?

Many insurance policies cover biohazard and crime scene cleanup. Check with your insurance provider to confirm the details of your specific policy.

Is blood a biohazard?

Blood itself is not a biohazard. It’s what may be in the potentially hazardous blood, such as bloodborne pathogens (BBPs) or infectious microorganisms, that can cause diseases.

What does BBP mean?

Bloodborne pathogens (BBPs), as defined by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), are pathogenic microorganisms that are present in human blood and can cause disease in humans. These pathogens include, but are not limited to, hepatitis B virus (HBV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

How can I keep my home sterilized when taking care of someone with COVID-19?

As with any virus, the Coronavirus spreads when an infected person coughs or sneezes, and any respiratory droplets come in contact with another person.  Keeping a good distance from infected persons will help keep you safe from contracting the disease.

The following measures will help keep your environment safe:

  • Use a separate room and bathroom for sick household members if possible.
  • Disinfect household items regularly, paying particular attention to those that are touched often.
  • Wash hands frequently for at least 20 seconds, making sure to lather the back of your hands, between your fingers, and under your nails, or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.
  • Clean personal items regularly, such as cell phones, glasses, remote control devices, computers, etc.
  • Avoid sharing personal items like utensils, food, and drinks.
