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.
No single product is best for every surface. Waste is removed first, then an EPA-registered disinfectant is used by the label. Porous materials such as carpet and mattresses often have to be removed rather than cleaned.
Crews follow rules designed to protect workers from bloodborne pathogens, including the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, when blood or other body fluids are present. Rental housing and sanitation rules vary by city and county.
The safety steps are the same, but commercial jobs may involve shared restrooms, customers and business hours. Crews work to close off the area, clean it and keep documentation for managers and insurers.
It depends on the amount of waste, the surfaces involved and how many rooms are affected. A small mess on tile is a short job. Waste that reached carpet, padding or subfloor takes longer because materials must be removed.
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.
Calls are answered 24/7, and the job is planned on the call.
