Blood and other body fluids that may carry germs are treated as biohazards. Some, such as blood, can carry bloodborne pathogens like hepatitis B and HIV. Cleanup crews handle all of them with the same protection, because the source of a fluid is not always known.
Wash the skin with soap and water right away, and rinse the eyes or mouth with clean water if fluid splashed there. Then talk with a doctor or the local health department about next steps. This is general information, not medical advice.
It depends on the cause and the policy. Sudden events are more often covered than long-term neglect. Ask the cleanup team whether it can supply the paperwork an insurer asks for and whether it bills the insurer directly.
Dried waste can still carry germs, and sweeping or scrubbing it can send particles into the air. That is why it is cleaned carefully with protection and a disinfectant instead of dry sweeping or vacuuming.
A small amount on a hard surface can be removed with protection and a disinfectant. Do not do it with an open cut on your hands, and do not sweep or scrub dried waste. For large amounts or deep stains, call a human feces removal team.
