Blood cleaning is the step-by-step removal of blood from porous materials such as carpet, drywall and upholstery, and from hard surfaces such as tile and sealed wood. Each surface needs its own method.

Blood Cleanup Questions Answered for Ogden, IA
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.
Does homeowners insurance cover biohazard cleanup?
Many homeowners policies cover crime or death cleanup after the deductible, but an ordinary injury may not be covered. Renters policies often cover cleanup but not the building. Call the insurer before cleanup starts, take photos and keep every receipt.
Do blood cleaners handle blood in a vehicle?
Yes. Blood on seats, floor mats, door panels and in trunks is cleaned and disinfected, and heavily soaked upholstery may need removal. Vehicle jobs follow the same protective steps as work inside a building.
Is bleach enough to clean blood?
Bleach can disinfect some hard surfaces when it is used by the label, but it does not reach blood that has soaked into porous materials. It should never be mixed with other cleaners because the fumes can be dangerous. A cleanup team uses a full process.
Who cleans up blood spills in the workplace?
Employers have to protect workers who may be exposed, and the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard applies. A small spill may be cleaned up by staff who have the right training and supplies on site. Larger spills or blood that soaked in call for a commercial blood cleanup team.
What should I do before the cleaners get there?
Call 911 first if anyone is hurt. Keep people and pets away from the blood, do not wipe it up bare-handed and take photos if you can. Write down what the blood touched so the crew knows where to look.
