Blood Spill Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Downtown, Houston, TX
Does homeowners insurance cover biohazard cleanup?

Questions go to the Attorney General's office at (800) 983-9933.
Who cleans up blood spills in the workplace?
Employers have to protect workers who may be exposed, and the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard applies. A small spill may be cleaned up by staff who have the right training and supplies on site. Larger spills or blood that soaked in call for a commercial blood cleanup team.
What should I do if I touch blood?
Wash the skin with soap and water right away, and rinse the eyes or mouth with clean water if blood splashed there. Then talk with a doctor or the local health department about next steps. This is general information, not medical advice.
How do you dispose of materials contaminated with blood?
Soaked items and used supplies are sealed in leak-proof bags and treated as regulated medical waste, not ordinary trash. In Texas, companies that haul other people's untreated medical waste register with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. A cleanup company can explain how its waste is handled.
What should I do before the cleaners get there?
Call 911 first if anyone is hurt. Keep people and pets away from the blood, do not wipe it up bare-handed and take photos if you can. Write down what the blood touched so the crew knows where to look.
