Biohazards are genuine health hazards that can cause serious illness, while visible contamination is seldom the full extent of the problem.
Raw sewage carries hepatitis A, E. coli and salmonella, while wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Decomposition creates bacteria, gases and fluids that enter floors, then travel along the ventilation system into nearby rooms.
