Santa Clara County has a Very High river flood risk rating from FEMA. Floodwater mixes with sewage, and anything it touches needs full biohazard cleaning, not just drying.
Cars, trucks and work vehicles can carry biohazards after an accident, assault or medical event. Vehicle cleanup removes contaminated upholstery and disinfects every surface and vent.
Attics, barns and sheds can hold droppings, guano and carcasses that carry disease. Careful removal and disinfection protect the people who go back in.
