Common Questions About Cleaning After Illness in Ben Wheeler

Do cleaners handle other illnesses, such as flu or norovirus?

Yes. Flu, norovirus, MRSA, C. diff and E. coli each call for the right product and technique. Crews match the disinfectant to the germ, since not every product works against every germ.

How do you clean after COVID?

Open windows for ventilation if you can, wear gloves, and clean and disinfect the rooms the sick person used. Pay attention to door handles, switches, bathrooms and bedding. You can get a cleanup team for larger or shared spaces.

How do you kill coronavirus on surfaces?

Clean the surface first, then apply an EPA-registered disinfectant that lists the virus. Follow the label for contact time and any rinse step. Different surfaces, such as wood, fabric and electronics, need different products.

Does alcohol kill COVID?

Alcohol-based products can inactivate the virus when the alcohol content is high enough and the surface stays wet long enough. Many professional crews use EPA-registered disinfectants because the label shows the proven contact time and surfaces it is safe for.

Does homeowners insurance cover disinfection?

Some homeowners policies cover cleanup if a covered event makes the property unsafe, but many do not cover routine illness cleaning. Read your policy or ask your agent what applies. Call the insurer before cleanup starts and keep every receipt.

How do you disinfect wood furniture for COVID?

Wipe off soil, then use a product that is registered for the virus and safe for wood finishes. Check the label for contact time and test a small spot first. Heavily used or porous wood may need a professional's help.
