Cleaning Up Human Feces and Urine Across Salem and Harrison County

Human feces and urine cleanup is different from sewage cleanup. It deals with waste left on surfaces and in materials, while sewage backup involves contaminated water from pipes and drains.

Residents and businesses in Salem call Salem Biohazard Cleanup Help for human feces removal, urine odor treatment and safe disposal of contaminated materials. You can get help across Harrison County and the towns around it.

Around 30% of households in Salem rent, so landlords and property managers often set up waste cleanup between tenants. About 70% of homes in Salem were built before 1980, and older carpet, subfloor and wood trim absorb urine deeply.

The work often covers:

  • Disinfection of every surface the waste touched, using EPA-registered products
  • Clothing, towels and small items that must be bagged or discarded
  • Odor removal from the affected area once the source is gone
  • Urine cleanup from carpet, padding, mattresses, subfloor and upholstery
  • Sealed packaging and disposal of waste as regulated medical waste

The Human Waste Cleanup Process in Salem, Step by Step

1. Walk-through and plan

A technician looks over the home and explains what can be cleaned and what has to be removed.

2. Arrive and contain

Cleaners set up protection, close off the work area and keep foot traffic out.

3. Cleaning and disinfecting

Waste is removed layer by layer. Surfaces get a detailed clean followed by an EPA-registered disinfectant.

4. Sanitize and clear

Disinfectant stays wet on each surface for the label time. The crew then checks the work and takes the waste out.
