Disinfection Questions Answered
Why is sewage cleanup sanitization needed?
Sewage can carry bacteria, viruses and parasites. Keep people and pets away until it has been cleaned up and disinfected.
Can carpet sanitizing after a flood save sewage-soaked carpet?
Usually not. Carpet and pad soaked with sewage are removed. Carpet wet from clean water can often be extracted, dried and cleaned.
Is bleach enough for disinfection after flooding?
Bleach works only on clean, hard surfaces and cannot clean porous materials. Removing soaked items and cleaning surfaces come first.
What should I do while I wait for emergency sanitization?
Keep everyone away from dirty water, stop using drains if sewage is backing up, turn off power to wet areas if it is safe and take photos.
How long does sanitization after water damage take?
Cleaning and disinfecting often take a day or two, and drying usually takes three to five more days depending on the area.
