What Raton Residents Ask About Human Waste Cleanup
How do you clean up human feces?
Put on disposable gloves and eye protection, lift the waste with disposable towels and bag it. Then clean the area and disinfect it with an EPA-registered product by the label. Soaked porous materials usually have to be removed.
How long is human feces dangerous?
There is no safe rule for how long. Germs in waste can remain on surfaces and in dust after the waste has dried. That is why aged waste is still cleaned and disinfected with protection.
How do you clean up human feces outside?
Wear gloves, lift the waste with a disposable tool and bag it. Hose down only hard surfaces away from drains, wells and play areas. For large amounts, near a home or on a worksite, a cleanup team can remove and disinfect.
What rules do human waste cleaners follow?
Crews follow rules designed to protect workers from bloodborne pathogens, including the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, when blood or other body fluids are present. Rental housing and sanitation rules vary by city and county.
What should I do before the cleaners get there?
Call 911 first if anyone is hurt or ill. Keep people and pets out of the area, open a window if you can, and do not spray or scrub the waste. Take photos for insurance and note what the waste touched.
Can you get sick from cleaning up human feces?
Yes. Touching feces or contaminated surfaces and then your mouth, nose or eyes can spread germs. Wear gloves and eye protection, wash your hands well afterward and keep children and pets away.
