Common Questions About Urine and Feces Cleanup in Joseph

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.

Is feces and urine cleanup different from sewage cleanup?

Yes. Sewage cleanup deals with contaminated water from backed-up pipes. Feces and urine cleanup deals with waste left on surfaces and in materials, though some jobs involve both and need the same safety steps.

Can I remove feces manually?

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.

Is there a chemical that dissolves human feces?

Not one that is safe to pour on a floor or carpet. Dissolving waste spreads it deeper into materials. The right method is to lift the waste, remove soaked porous items and disinfect the surface.
