### Cleanup and Disinfection
Sewage cleanup involves the following steps:
– **Extraction:** Water and sewage are removed using pumps and vacuums.
– **Disinfection:** Surfaces are disinfected using EPA-approved antimicrobial agents to kill bacteria and viruses.
– **Deodorization:** Odors are removed using air scrubbers and deodorants.
– **Restoration:** Affected areas are restored to their original condition.
### How Long Do Bacteria Survive in Indoor Sewage Spills?
The survival time of bacteria in indoor sewage spills depends on several factors, including:
– **Temperature:** Higher temperatures promote bacterial growth.
– **Moisture:** Moisture provides a favorable environment for bacteria.
– **Surface Type:** Porous surfaces (e.g., carpets, fabrics) retain moisture and support bacterial growth longer than non-porous surfaces (e.g., tiles, laminate).
– **Concentration:** The higher the concentration of sewage, the more bacteria are present.
In general, bacteria can survive for several days to weeks in indoor sewage spills. It is crucial to have the spill cleaned up and disinfected promptly to minimize the risk of infection.
