The median home in Canby dates to 1993. Newer homes usually have drywall, laminate and engineered flooring, but fluids still reach the padding and subfloor. About 30% of homes in Canby are rented, so many cleanups involve owners working directly with their own homeowners insurance company.
Household gloves and a spray bottle do not meet the standard for infectious materials. Biohazard decontamination follows 29 CFR 1910.1030, which sets rules for protective equipment, handling and disposal when blood or other potentially infectious materials are present.
Cleaning removes soil, and disinfecting kills germs, so both steps happen. Crews use EPA-registered disinfectants and let them stay wet for the full contact time, then use air scrubbers to pull particles and odor out of the air.
