Yes. Dried blood can still carry germs, and some viruses, such as hepatitis B, can last on surfaces for a long time. Scraping or scrubbing dried blood can also put particles into the air, so it should be handled with protection and disinfected.
Usually not. Small amounts of blood on a hard surface can be cleaned with gloves and a disinfectant. A cleanup service becomes useful when the spill is large, has soaked in, reached several rooms or involved another person's blood.
Call 911 first if anyone is hurt. Keep people and pets away from the blood, do not wipe it up bare-handed and take photos if you can. Write down what the blood touched so the crew knows where to look.
At a home, the owner or the family usually pays. At a rental or a business, the landlord, property owner or employer often gets the cleanup done. In a rental, the lease and local law decide, and a landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say.
It depends on the size of the spill and the materials involved. A small spill on tile is a short job. Blood that reached carpet, padding or subfloor takes longer because materials must be removed and the area disinfected.
Crime scene cleaners wear protective gear, contain the area, remove soaked porous materials and lift blood from hard surfaces. They then disinfect with EPA-registered products and haul the waste away. The goal is to remove the hazard, not just the stain.
One call starts the cleanup, disinfection and disposal.
