Homes in Woodlawn have a median build year of 1978, older than most homes across North Carolina. Older carpet, wood subfloors and trim take in fluids deeply, so more material may need removal.

The rule on the wall of every serious crew is to treat all blood and bodily fluids as infectious. Under OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29 CFR 1910.1030), cleanup technicians use PPE and strict handling steps so germs stay out of the rest of the home and off the people doing the work.
Sealing, cleaning, disinfecting and ventilating work together. Plastic barriers and HEPA air scrubbers hold contaminants in place, EPA-registered disinfectants do the germ kill, and hydroxyl or ozone treatment clears the odor that is left.

Symptoms such as stomach pain, vomiting and diarrhea can begin within a few hours to a few days after contact with raw sewage, depending on the germ. Sewage is a Category 3 biohazard, so it should be cleaned by a crew wearing protective gear, and anyone with symptoms should see a doctor.

A small household spill is a different matter than a death or crime scene, and anything larger than a few drops should be left to a crew.
