Feces and Urine Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Greenwood Lake, NY

Can you get sick from cleaning up human feces?

Yes. Touching feces or contaminated surfaces and then your mouth, nose or eyes can spread germs. Wear gloves and eye protection, wash your hands well afterward and keep children and pets away.

Why does urine smell keep coming back?

Urine soaks into padding, subfloor and mattress layers, and bacteria keep releasing odor from there. Surface cleaning does not reach it. Removing the soaked materials is usually what ends the smell.

Is urine a biohazard?

Urine is treated with caution, especially when it is mixed with blood or other fluids or has soaked into flooring and mattresses. It can leave bacteria and strong odor behind. A cleanup team removes the soaked materials and disinfects the area.

What is the best cleaner for human feces?

No single product is best for every surface. Waste is removed first, then an EPA-registered disinfectant is used by the label. Porous materials such as carpet and mattresses often have to be removed rather than cleaned.

Can I remove feces manually?

A small amount on a hard surface can be removed with protection and a disinfectant. Do not do it with an open cut on your hands, and do not sweep or scrub dried waste. For large amounts or deep stains, call a human feces removal team.

Is feces and urine cleanup different from sewage cleanup?

Yes. Sewage cleanup deals with contaminated water from backed-up pipes. Feces and urine cleanup deals with waste left on surfaces and in materials, though some jobs involve both and need the same safety steps.
