At trauma scenes where individuals have been injured or worse, there is a danger of blood and other fluids carrying infectious diseases and pathogens such as HIV. Not only does the location need to be properly cleaned up, but it also needs to be sanitized to ensure you have a safe environment going forward.

This is one of the most serious issues overlooked when dealing with biohazard remediation. Often individuals prefer to clean up the scenes themselves completely unaware of the risks and dangers involved. But doing it yourself could put you, your family, or your employees at risk. If the cost of specialized cleaning and sanitizing is a concern, we recommend you check with your insurance agent to see if you are covered. Depending on the nature of the situation, the use of a professional biohazard cleaning service may be covered by property or vehicle insurance.

Even if you aren't covered by insurance, a specialized cleaner is really the safest and best way to handle cleaning up the scene. We use professional protective equipment including breathing gear, suits, gloves, facial protection, and footwear. Each technician at Mayken™ Hazmat has extensive training and follows safety protocols to ensure that not only are we protected while doing the crime scene cleanup, but also that all associated dangers are eradicated from the scene to ensure your protection going forward.
