Older housing is common in Colfax, around 69% built before 1980, and porous materials there often need removal, not just disinfection. Because vacancy is lower in Dunn County, at about 8% of homes, contamination is usually found quickly and treated while people still live in the house.
A typical biohazard decontamination job includes:
- Containment barriers that keep clean rooms separate from the work area
- Detailed cleaning of floors, walls, ceilings and fixtures before any disinfectant is applied
- Documentation and photos that landlords, insurers and safety staff often request
- Decontamination of rooms touched by blood, bodily fluids, sewage or animal waste

Biohazard Decontamination FAQs for Colfax and Dunn County
Do OSHA rules apply to biohazard decontamination?
Workers who may contact blood or infectious material are covered by the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030. Professional crews follow its rules on PPE and handling. Employers have their own duties, and safety staff can explain them.
How do I know the decontamination worked?
A good team inspects every treated surface, treats leftover odors and explains what it did. Some teams add swab tests. Ask what the final check includes and ask for a record of the work. Testing rules vary by place.
Do I need to be home during the work?
In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask how access and keys can be arranged. If you are out of town, say so when you call.
Will the neighbors know?
Usually not. Crews arrive in unmarked vehicles, work quietly and keep details private. Tell the team if discretion matters, and it will plan around that.
What are the biological hazards in a home?
Common ones include blood, vomit, feces, sewage, mold, pest droppings and dead animals. Illness spread by sick residents can also leave germs on surfaces. Some of these need professional biohazard specialists.
Can carpet and mattresses be saved?
Sometimes, but often not. Porous materials soak up fluids, and germs can remain deep inside where disinfectant cannot reach. The team looks at each item and explains which can be saved. Items that cannot be cleaned are removed, sealed and hauled away.
