It is also called bio hazard cleaning, biohazard remediation, trauma cleanup or bio cleanup.

The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.
Hepatitis C and B, along with HIV, can survive in blood. The CDC reports that hepatitis B can remain on surfaces for at least seven days.
Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis A and E. coli.
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.
