What South Zanesville Property Owners Ask About Chemical Cleanup

Do biohazard crews clean chemical spills?

Some do, but the work is different. Biohazard cleanup deals with blood, body fluids and germs, while chemical cleanup deals with harmful substances. Ask whether a team has the gear and procedures for the specific chemical before hiring it.

What if a spill reaches soil or a drain?

Keep people away and call 911 if there is danger. Cleanup teams place barriers and absorbents to stop the spread and remove contaminated soil or materials where needed. Local fire and health officials can say what must be reported.

Can chemicals be left in a garage or shed?

Old or leaking products are a risk. Heat, humidity and age can damage containers, and fumes can build up. If containers are leaking, damaged or unlabeled, have a cleanup team remove them.

How long does chemical cleanup take?

Many jobs take part of a day to a few days. A small spill may be quick. A large release, a soaked site or many unknown containers take longer, and waste pickup can add time. A local team can give a better estimate after seeing the site.

What are the health risks of chemical exposure?

Chemicals can irritate or burn skin and eyes, harm the lungs and poison people who swallow them. Some give off fumes or catch fire. Call 911 in an emergency and Poison Control for exposure questions, and tell them the product name if known.

What if a mercury thermometer or lamp breaks?

Open a window if it is safe, leave the room and keep people and pets away. Do not vacuum or sweep mercury, since that spreads it. Call Poison Control with questions, and call a cleanup team if the spill is large.
