How Crews Decontaminate a Middletown Property From Start to Finish

1. Identify the germs of concern

Blood, sewage, animal waste and infectious illness each call for different products. The crew chooses a disinfectant whose label fits the situation.

2. Arrive quietly

The team arrives in an unmarked vehicle, suits up at the door and isolates the area. Neighbors have no reason to notice.

3. Take out, scrub down

Contaminated items leave in sealed bags, and the remaining surfaces are scrubbed. This clears the film that can protect germs.

4. Treat, deodorize and hand off

Disinfectant goes on every cleaned surface, and odor is treated at its source. The team walks the owner through the finished space and the records.
