- Decontamination of rooms touched by blood, bodily fluids, sewage or animal waste
- Disinfection of touch points such as door handles, switches, rails and counters
- Surface inspection after treatment, with notes on what was done and where
- Removal of carpet, padding, mattresses and upholstery that germs have soaked into

2. Set up the work zone
The crew isolates the affected rooms and limits airflow so germs do not travel. Waste containers and cleaning supplies are staged inside the zone.
3. Remove, then clean
Visible material and items that cannot be saved are removed and sealed. Every surface is then cleaned with detergent, because residue shields germs from disinfectant.
4. Final walk-through
The crew goes through the space with the owner and explains what was done. Waste leaves in sealed containers, and questions get plain answers.

Linden Biohazard Remediation Questions, Answered
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.
What should I do before the crew arrives?
Keep people and pets out of the affected area. Do not wipe, vacuum or scrub anything. Take photos from a safe distance for your insurer, and call 911 first if anyone is in danger.
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 a car or truck be decontaminated?
Yes. Crews remove soiled mats, seat covers and cushions, clean the cabin and disinfect seats, belts, door pulls and vents. Fleet managers and rideshare drivers often call after a medical event or a mess that cannot wait.
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.
Who pays for decontamination in Texas?
The property owner usually pays on their own property, often the owner, family or estate. In a rental, the lease and local law decide. If a violent crime was involved, the Texas Crime Victims' Compensation Program pays up to $2,250 for crime scene clean-up for crimes after July 14, 2016, with insurance used first. Questions go to (800) 983-9933.
