The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.
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.
Decomposition creates bacteria, gases and fluids that enter floors, then travel along the ventilation system into nearby rooms.
Raw sewage carries E. coli, salmonella and hepatitis A, and wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Hepatitis C and B, along with HIV, can survive in blood. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.

A biohazard is any biological material that can cause disease, such as blood, bodily fluids, tissue, human or animal waste, raw sewage and used needles.
Some can last a long time. The CDC reports that hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days; dried blood should therefore be handled as infectious.
Symptoms from sewage germs often start within one to three days, and some infections take longer. Keep away, and prevent pets or children from entering.
