Gloves, eye protection, respirators and disposable suits go on before the crew crosses the boundary. Doors and vents in the work area are managed.

What Fairbanks Property Owners Ask About Decontamination
Is it safe to stay in the house during decontamination?
Usually it is better not to. The affected area is sealed off, products are in use and the air is being managed. Ask the crew whether other parts of the house can stay in use.
What are the biological hazards in a home?
Common ones include blood, vomit, feces, sewage, mold, pest droppings and dead animals. Illness spread by sick residents can also leave germs on surfaces. Some of these need professional biohazard specialists.
Can carpet and mattresses be saved?
Sometimes, but often not. Porous materials soak up fluids, and germs can remain deep inside where disinfectant cannot reach. The team looks at each item and explains which can be saved. Items that cannot be cleaned are removed, sealed and hauled away.
What is the difference between biohazard cleanup and decontamination?
Cleanup removes blood, bodily fluids and other material from a scene. Decontamination makes the cleaned surfaces and the space safe again through cleaning and disinfecting. Most jobs include both, and the crew can explain how it treats each.
Can I decontaminate a space myself?
Light, simple messes may be manageable with gloves and the right product, but blood, sewage and infectious material are not. Mistakes can spread germs, and household cleaners often miss what soaked into porous items. Crews use PPE, containment and tested procedures.
How do you decontaminate after COVID-19 or other illness?
Crews clean, then disinfect touch points, bedding, floors and shared surfaces with products suited to the germ. They wear PPE and bag soiled items safely. The same process applies to C. diff, norovirus and other infections.
