Because vacancy is lower in Jacksonville, at about 8% of homes, contamination is usually found quickly and treated while people still live in the house. Older housing is common in Jacksonville, around 40% built before 1980, and porous materials there often need removal, not just disinfection.
A typical biohazard decontamination job includes:
- Detailed cleaning of floors, walls, ceilings and fixtures before any disinfectant is applied
- Surface inspection after treatment, with notes on what was done and where
- Decontamination of rooms touched by blood, bodily fluids, sewage or animal waste
- Disinfection of touch points such as door handles, switches, rails and counters

Biohazard Decontamination FAQs for Riverview and Duval County
Can I decontaminate a space myself?
Light, simple messes may be manageable with gloves and the right product, but blood, sewage and infectious material are not. Mistakes can spread germs, and household cleaners often miss what soaked into porous items. Crews use PPE, containment and tested procedures.
Can a car or truck be decontaminated?
Yes. Crews remove soiled mats, seat covers and cushions, clean the cabin and disinfect seats, belts, door pulls and vents. Fleet managers and rideshare drivers often call after a medical event or a mess that cannot wait.
Why does cleaning come before disinfecting?
Disinfectant does not work well on dirty surfaces, because residue can shield germs from the product. Crews remove visible material, clean every surface with detergent and then apply disinfectant for the contact time on its label. Skipping the cleaning step is a common reason a job fails.
Can carpet and mattresses be saved?
Sometimes, but often not. Porous materials soak up fluids, and germs can remain deep inside where disinfectant cannot reach. The team looks at each item and explains which can be saved. Items that cannot be cleaned are removed, sealed and hauled away.
Is it safe to stay in the house during decontamination?
Usually it is better not to. The affected area is sealed off, products are in use and the air is being managed. Ask the crew whether other parts of the house can stay in use.
How do you decontaminate after COVID-19 or other illness?
Crews clean, then disinfect touch points, bedding, floors and shared surfaces with products suited to the germ. They wear PPE and bag soiled items safely. The same process applies to C. diff, norovirus and other infections.
