What Biohazard Decontamination Means for Occidental Properties
Biohazard remediation, sometimes called biological remediation or biological cleanup, is the full process of containing, removing and treating biological contamination. Decontamination is its finishing stage, where cleaned surfaces are disinfected and checked.

Older housing is common in Occidental, around 78% built before 1980, and porous materials there often need removal, not just disinfection. Most Sonoma County homes are owner-occupied, so the owner usually sets up decontamination and files the insurance claim.
