Disinfection and Decontamination Questions Answered for Shrewsbury, PA
Is bacteria a biological hazard?
Yes. Some bacteria can cause illness, and they are treated as biological hazards when they are present in blood, waste or contaminated surfaces. Cleanup crews use products and protection chosen for the germs involved.
Who can advise during an outbreak?
State and local health departments can advise during outbreaks. You can get a cleanup team for the disinfection itself, and a doctor or the health department can answer questions about symptoms and testing.
What rules do disinfection crews follow?
Worker safety falls under federal rules, including the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030. EPA keeps lists of registered disinfectants for specific germs, and the label says which germs it covers and how long it must stay wet.
Will the neighbors know a cleanup is happening?
Infectious disease cleanup is handled discreetly. Ask when you call about unmarked vehicles and quiet work. Cleaners are there for the property owner, not to draw attention.
Does hand sanitizer kill coronavirus?
Hand sanitizer is meant for skin, not for disinfecting surfaces. It may evaporate before the needed contact time and can damage some finishes. Use an EPA-registered surface disinfectant for counters, door handles and furniture.
What are the methods of infection control?
Common methods include hand hygiene, protective equipment, cleaning and disinfection, ventilation and keeping sick people apart from others. Cleanup crews use several of them together when they decontaminate a space.
