Human Waste Removal and Disinfection in Portage Lakes

Human feces and urine cleanup is different from sewage cleanup. It deals with waste left on surfaces and in materials, while sewage backup involves contaminated water from pipes and drains.

Treat every waste contamination in Portage Lakes as a possible exposure risk. You can get crews that contain the area, protect nearby rooms and check the affected areas before handing the space back. For help in Summit County, call Portage Lakes Biohazard Cleanup Help.

Around 39% of households in Portage Lakes rent, so landlords and property managers often set up waste cleanup between tenants. In Portage Lakes, the age of the flooring and walls decides whether urine can be cleaned from them or the materials must be removed.

Clothing, towels and small items that must be bagged or discarded

Human feces removed from floors, carpet, furniture, walls and bathrooms

How Feces and Urine Cleanup Works in Portage Lakes, OH

1. Make the space safe

Everyone steps away. The crew sets up barriers and puts on gloves, eye protection, masks and protective clothing.

2. Protect the rest of the home

Plastic sheeting and sealed doorways keep contamination from being carried into clean rooms on shoes or tools.

3. Removal

Feces, stained porous materials and contaminated debris are removed. Surfaces that can stay are cleaned and disinfected.

4. Dispose and verify

Waste is packed for regulated disposal. A final visual check makes sure nothing was missed.

What Portage Lakes Residents Ask About Human Waste Cleanup

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.

Why does urine smell keep coming back?

Urine soaks into padding, subfloor and mattress layers, and bacteria keep releasing odor from there. Surface cleaning does not reach it. Removing the soaked materials is usually what ends the smell.

How do you clean up human feces?

Put on disposable gloves and eye protection, lift the waste with disposable towels and bag it. Then clean the area and disinfect it with an EPA-registered product by the label. Soaked porous materials usually have to be removed.

Who pays for feces and urine cleanup in a rental?

In a rental, the lease and local law decide who pays, and a landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say. In most other cases the owner of the home or the person arranging the cleanup pays.

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.

Can a mattress or couch be saved after urine or feces?

Usually not when waste has soaked through. Mattresses, couches and padded furniture absorb liquid deep inside, and surface cleaning does not reach it. Soaked items are typically removed and disposed of as waste.
