Waste is lifted from every surface it reached. Soaked items are removed and the remaining surfaces are sanitized.
Disinfectant stays wet on each surface for the label time. The crew then checks the work and takes the waste out.

There is no safe rule for how long. Germs in waste can remain on surfaces and in dust after the waste has dried. That is why aged waste is still cleaned and disinfected with protection.
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.
Usually not when waste has soaked through. Mattresses, couches and padded furniture absorb liquid deep inside, and surface cleaning does not reach it. Soaked items are typically removed and disposed of as waste.
No single product is best for every surface. Waste is removed first, then an EPA-registered disinfectant is used by the label. Porous materials such as carpet and mattresses often have to be removed rather than cleaned.
In a rental, the lease and local law decide who pays, and a landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say. In most other cases the owner of the home or the person arranging the cleanup pays.
The price depends on the amount of waste, how long it sat, how deep it soaked in and how many rooms are affected. A cleanup company gives a price after seeing the affected area. Some teams offer payment plans, so ask when you call.
