Questions About Cleaning Up Blood in Lochearn

How long do diseases last in dried blood?

It depends on the germ and the conditions, and nobody can judge it by looking at a stain. Hepatitis B, for example, can survive on surfaces for a considerable time. That is why dried blood is treated as infectious until it has been properly disinfected.

Can I clean a small blood spill myself?

A small spill on a hard surface can be cleaned with gloves, eye protection and an EPA-registered disinfectant. Do not do it if you have an open cut, or if blood has soaked into carpet, wood or grout. When in doubt, call a blood cleanup company.

Can blood be removed from carpet?

Surface stains may lift, but blood that soaked through carpet and padding can sit in the subfloor and keep carrying germs and odor. In that case the soaked carpet and padding are cut out and disposed of as waste.

How much does blood cleanup cost?

The price depends on the size of the spill, how deep the blood soaked in, the surface type and how much waste is removed. A cleanup company gives a price after seeing the affected area. Some teams offer payment plans, so ask when you call.

What should you use when cleaning up blood?

Use disposable gloves, eye protection, disposable absorbent towels and a disinfectant that is EPA-registered for bloodborne pathogens. Follow the label for how long the surface must stay wet. Bag the used materials and keep them away from other people.

Do I need a blood spill cleanup service after a nosebleed or minor cut?

Usually not. Small amounts of blood on a hard surface can be cleaned with gloves and a disinfectant. A cleanup service becomes useful when the spill is large, has soaked in, reached several rooms or involved another person's blood.
