Making a West Modesto, CA Space Safe Again After Contamination
To decontaminate means to remove contamination from surfaces and the air until the space is safe for people to use. In a biohazard setting, that means cleaning first, then disinfecting, then treating odor.

Visible material and items that cannot be saved are removed and sealed. Every surface is then cleaned with detergent, because residue shields germs from disinfectant.
