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.
Surface cleaning with sprays or bleach misses fluids that have entered carpet padding, drywall and the subfloor. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.
Blood can support hepatitis C, HIV and hepatitis B. According to the CDC, hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days.
You can call for emergency service at any hour, and crews come in unmarked vehicles so nearby residents and building staff are not told what occurred.
