Renters live in about 56% of homes in Seattle, so landlords and property managers often need to get cleanup done and sort out who pays with tenants and insurers. Older adults make up about 13% of residents in Seattle, below the Washington average, so calls come from a broad mix of situations, including accidents, crime scenes and rental turnovers.
Decontamination starts with protecting people. Crews suit up in PPE, set up barriers so contaminants cannot drift into clean rooms, and work to OSHA bloodborne pathogen protocols (29 CFR 1910.1030) from the first step to the last.

Safe cleaning means PPE, containment, removal of porous materials, cleaning, EPA-registered disinfectant for the full contact time, and sealed disposal of the waste. A small household spill is a different matter than a death or crime scene, and anything larger than a few drops should be left to a crew.
