HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can live in blood. According to the CDC, hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days.
Although bleach and sprays may clean on top, absorbed fluids remain in drywall, subfloor, carpet and its pad. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.
Hepatitis A, salmonella and E. coli travel in raw sewage, while materials left wet may develop mold in 24 to 48 hours.
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
Calls for emergency service are taken around the clock, while unmarked vehicles keep the situation private from neighbors and building personnel.
