Why Proper Biohazard Cleanup and Disinfection Matters

When blood or bodily fluids are present due to a death or accident, the risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens (BBPs) and biohazards is significant. Without professional biohazard cleanup, these hazards can lead to severe health risks.

Understanding the Risks of Biohazards
Bloodborne pathogens, including viruses like Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and HIV, as well as bacteria like MRSA, pose a serious danger. According to the CDC, 1 in 24 people carries one of these infections. Proper biohazard cleaning is crucial to eliminate these threats and protect the safety of individuals in the affected area.

Aftermath’s Science-Based Biohazard Cleanup Process
At Aftermath, we prioritize safety with a rigorous, science-based biohazard remediation process. Our protocols adhere to OSHA’s Bloodborne Pathogen Standards and include:

  • Universal Precautions: Treating all biohazardous material as potentially infectious.
  • PPE for Protection: Equipping both our team and customers with personal protective equipment when accessing affected areas.

Our goal is to minimize exposure risks and restore the property to a safe condition.

The Dangers of Improper Blood Cleanup
Improper cleanup of blood and bodily fluids can lead to serious health and property risks:

  • Health Risks: Inadequately treated areas may still harbor harmful bacteria and pathogens, increasing the likelihood of outbreaks.
  • Property Damage: Blood and fluids that seep beneath carpets or floors can cause structural damage and persistent odors.

Why Surface Cleaning Isn’t Enough
Surface cleaning with a topical solution might suppress bacteria temporarily but often misses hidden contamination. Lingering fluids can lead to the return of odors and the growth of new bacterial colonies, putting occupants at further risk.

Advanced Testing for Biohazard Remediation
The Aftermath biohazard cleanup process goes beyond standard cleaning. We use ATP testing to measure cell activity, including bloodborne pathogens, in affected areas. Only when ATP tests show zero RLU (registered light units) do we consider the area safe and fully sanitized.

Measurable Results You Can Trust
Our advanced testing ensures accountability and provides measurable results, giving you peace of mind that your property has been restored to a safe, livable condition.

What is Remediation?

What is Biohazard Cleanup and Why is it Different from Standard Cleaning?
To many, biohazard cleanup or remediation may sound similar to standard cleaning. However, the two couldn’t be more different. Biohazard remediation involves the removal, cleaning, and disinfection of blood, bodily fluids, and other potentially dangerous pathogens from affected areas after events like deaths, accidents, or communicable disease outbreaks.

Due to the high exposure risk to bloodborne pathogens, biohazard cleanup is a specialized service requiring advanced training, professional-grade equipment, and proper certification. This ensures the safety of everyone involved and the thorough restoration of the area.

Aftermath’s Expertise in Biohazard Remediation
For over 20 years, Aftermath has been a trusted leader in biohazard remediation. Our commitment to health and safety has led us to develop:

  • A proprietary 5-step biohazard cleanup process.
  • A custom line of cleaning agents designed to eliminate harmful pathogens effectively.

We adhere to the highest industry standards, ensuring every remediation project meets regulatory compliance and provides peace of mind to our customers.

Our 100% Customer Satisfaction Guarantee
At Aftermath, we stand behind the quality of our biohazard cleaning services. Our 100% Customer Satisfaction Guarantee reflects our dedication to restoring safety and helping our customers move forward with confidence.

The job of a biohazard cleaner is to completely clean, sanitize, and deodorize the site where a violent crime, suicide, or traumatic accident has occurred. Biohazard cleanup can be challenging work that requires technicians to handle potentially hazardous materials such as blood and body fluids, and proper handling of the crime or trauma scene is crucial to the safety of everyone involved.

Biohazard remediation refers to the removal, cleaning, and disinfection of blood, bodily fluids, and other potentially harmful pathogens in affected areas after a death, accident, or communicable disease outbreak.

Blood and body fluids can contain bloodborne pathogens and potentially cause diseases. When blood and body fluids get trapped in floors, walls, and even ceilings, these potential bloodborne pathogens can cause people to become sick months (and even years) later.

The cost of remediating biohazards can vary dramatically from situation to situation, which is why we offer to come to the scene and prepare a no-obligation written assessment of our recommended treatment plan.

Unlike standard house or business cleaning, biohazard cleanup is a service that requires industry expertise, specialized equipment, and appropriate certifications.

Aftermath understands that the improper treatment of blood and bodily fluids can lead to further health and safety risks, including outbreaks and structural damage to property. When blood spills are simply spot cleaned and treated with a topical solution, the affected area has not been properly disinfected.

We verify our work using ATP tests, which measures cell activity, including bloodborne pathogens. Only when the test registers zero RLU (registered light units) are we satisfied with the level of cleanliness. This test adds technology, measurability, and accountability to our biohazard remediation process.

"The Pasadena Aftermath team did an outstanding job. Not only are they a remarkable team, they are also exceptional individuals. Over the course of the week that they were here, we got to know and trust them. They handled this unthinkable situation with grace, compassion, and the utmost respect for the victims. Words will never be able to truly capture the appreciation we have for them. When our world felt like it was hit with a tsunami, your team threw us a life preserver and told us that we will be okay again.The world needs more “Kevins”, “Jamies”, and “Hassens”, who will help lift the burden off of strangers who are facing their darkest days."

"Sterling and Aurelia did much more than clean the scene. They were patient, kind, and very compassionate. They took good care of the property as if it was there own. Sterling and Aurelia communicated with us every step of the way. Their presence alone did much to contribute to the healing process. On top of all that, they did a fantastic job cleaning the house. To be honest, we hated to see them leave. Our family thank them both to the highest degree!!"
