Common Questions About Cleaning After Illness in Harveys Lake
What is the single most effective method of infection control?
Washing hands with soap and water is widely taught as the single most effective step. In a contaminated space, cleaning and disinfecting surfaces with protective gear and the right product adds to it.
What is infectious disease cleanup?
It is the cleaning and disinfection of a space after contagious illness. Crews use protective gear, clean surfaces first and apply EPA-registered disinfectants matched to the germ. Contaminated waste is removed and disposed of correctly.
How do you disinfect after COVID-19?
Wear gloves, clean visible soil from high-touch surfaces and then apply an EPA-registered disinfectant that lists the virus on the label. Keep it wet for the full contact time. Soft items such as bedding are washed on the warmest setting the fabric allows.
What should I do before the cleaners get there?
Call 911 if anyone is seriously ill. Keep people and pets out of the affected rooms, open windows if you can, and do not spray the space yourself. Note which rooms and items the sick person used.
Does hand sanitizer kill coronavirus?
Hand sanitizer is meant for skin, not for disinfecting surfaces. It may evaporate before the needed contact time and can damage some finishes. Use an EPA-registered surface disinfectant for counters, door handles and furniture.
Will the neighbors know a cleanup is happening?
Infectious disease cleanup is handled discreetly. Ask when you call about unmarked vehicles and quiet work. Cleaners are there for the property owner, not to draw attention.
