Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Fluids, gases and bacteria from decomposition can penetrate flooring and move into other rooms through ventilation.
Raw sewage carries E. coli, salmonella and hepatitis A, and wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
