Common Questions About Cleaning After Illness in New Haven

How do you disinfect after COVID-19?

Wear gloves, clean visible soil from high-touch surfaces and then apply an EPA-registered disinfectant that lists the virus on the label. Keep it wet for the full contact time. Soft items such as bedding are washed on the warmest setting the fabric allows.

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 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.

Is bacteria a biological hazard?
