After illness or a death
Disinfection after an infectious illness in Yakima
Sometimes the room has to be safe before anyone else uses it: a family member coming home, a new tenant, staff returning to work.

Cleaning first, then disinfecting
Disinfectant works on surfaces that are already clean. A company will clean visible soiling first, then apply a disinfectant and leave it wet for the time its label requires.
Soft furnishings that were soiled, such as a mattress or an armchair, are often removed rather than treated.
Tell the company what illness was involved if you know. If a doctor or the health department gave you instructions, read them out on the call.
Questions to ask
- Which surfaces and rooms will you treat, and which will you leave?
- How long must the room stay empty afterward?
- What will you remove, and how will it be disposed of?
- Will you give me a written record of what was done? A landlord or employer may want it.
Yakima and the valley around it
Nobody in the family has to clean this
An independent cleanup company can take it from here once the police and the coroner are done. Asking questions on the phone commits you to nothing.
When you are ready to talk
Say what happened, where it is and who owns the property. The company explains what it would do. You decide whether to go ahead.
