Common Questions About Cleaning After Illness in Potrero Hill
Will the neighbors know a cleanup is happening?
Infectious disease cleanup is handled discreetly. Ask when you call about unmarked vehicles and quiet work. Cleaners are there for the property owner, not to draw attention.
What should I do before the cleaners get there?
Call 911 if anyone is seriously ill. Keep people and pets out of the affected rooms, open windows if you can, and do not spray the space yourself. Note which rooms and items the sick person used.
When is commercial decontamination needed?
When illness has spread among employees, customers or residents, or when a manager needs documented cleaning before reopening. Commercial decontamination services handle shared rooms, equipment and restrooms in a set order.
What is the single most effective method of infection control?
Washing hands with soap and water is widely taught as the single most effective step. In a contaminated space, cleaning and disinfecting surfaces with protective gear and the right product adds to it.
How long does disinfection take?
It depends on the size of the space and the number of surfaces. A single room is a short job. Whole buildings, shared housing or spaces with soft materials to remove take longer, plus the required contact time.
Does hand sanitizer kill coronavirus?
Hand sanitizer is meant for skin, not for disinfecting surfaces. It may evaporate before the needed contact time and can damage some finishes. Use an EPA-registered surface disinfectant for counters, door handles and furniture.
