Hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV can live in blood. The CDC reports that hepatitis B can remain 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. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.
