Feces and Urine Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Colonial Heights, VA
Is human feces toxic to breathe?
The odor is unpleasant and can irritate the nose, throat and eyes. Dried waste can release particles when disturbed, so avoid sweeping or scrubbing it. Open a window if you can and call a cleanup team for large amounts.
What should I do before the cleaners get there?
Call 911 first if anyone is hurt or ill. Keep people and pets out of the area, open a window if you can, and do not spray or scrub the waste. Take photos for insurance and note what the waste touched.
Is feces and urine cleanup different from sewage cleanup?
Yes. Sewage cleanup deals with contaminated water from backed-up pipes. Feces and urine cleanup deals with waste left on surfaces and in materials, though some jobs involve both and need the same safety steps.
Can you get sick from cleaning up human feces?
Yes. Touching feces or contaminated surfaces and then your mouth, nose or eyes can spread germs. Wear gloves and eye protection, wash your hands well afterward and keep children and pets away.
Can breathing in feces fumes be harmful?
Strong fumes can cause headaches, nausea and irritation, especially in a closed room. Long-term exposure in a heavily contaminated home is a health concern. Leave the room, ventilate it and have a cleanup team remove the source.
How do you clean up human feces outside?
Wear gloves, lift the waste with a disposable tool and bag it. Hose down only hard surfaces away from drains, wells and play areas. For large amounts, near a home or on a worksite, a cleanup team can remove and disinfect.
