Do you need professional cleaning services?


Professional Cleaning Services

We, Bio Cleanse Pty Ltd, provide all kinds of cleaning services, right from hoarding and meth lab cleaning to water and fire damage clean-ups and insect infestation control services. You must be wondering why you should hire us, when you can do the cleaning all by yourself.

We have answers to some of your questions.

Whenever there is a blood spill in a crime scene situation, there are fair chances of pathogens getting involved with blood and spreading infection all around. If the incident goes unnoticed, the surrounding areas get highly disease-prone. Removal of the matter does not solve the problem; for pathogens can infect the air, floor and furniture. We will ensure you that the area is thoroughly disinfected. The same would be true for mould, insect and other such infestations.

It starts with a single item and then, piles up to be a burden. Yes! We are talking about hoarding. Throwing away things which were dear to you (or someone you know), which you thought you would use in future, can be difficult. You might end up in keeping all of them. We take up this for you. We make sure that your stuff is properly disposed and also that your place is thoroughly cleaned.

Sharp objects and syringes clean-up also requires some training. You just cannot discard these objects for you might end up hurting yourself or others in your vicinity. We do sharps and syringes clean-up for hospitals and clinics. We believe in the - Your safety is our mission - adage.

Deaths of dear ones leave a void in our lives. We cannot bring ourselves around to the fact that they are gone. Cleaning up their room or house or living areas often becomes a difficult or traumatic thing to do. We understand your situation. We can help you with the cleaning.

Requirements to be a crime scene cleaner


Requirements to be a crime scene cleaner


The job of a crime scene cleaner is not easy. S/he requires certain qualities, like composing oneself professionally amid the most horrific scenes.

The job of crime scene cleaners is to sanitize homes, businesses, and vehicles after a homicide, industrial accidents or any other traumatic events. This is done by using various cleaning techniques and also using special cleaning agents to do the same.

Services could range from unattended death, suicide and accident clean-up in order to disinfect & odour removal. Crime scene cleaning involves the clean-up of blood and body fluids, cross contamination by police, paramedics & forensics.

Doing courses on drug lab decontamination & hazardous materials will make you more marketable to potential employers.

Here are some qualities crime scene cleaners need to possess:

1. High tolerance level, as crime scene cleaners encounter a wide range of traumatic incidents.

2. Must be detailed oriented.

3. Stamina - as technicians are required to wear bio-hazard suits, full face masks and may require them to work in harsh environments.

4. Integrity plays a big role, as crime scene clean-up companies may require candidates to pass a background check.


When it comes to Crime Scene Cleaning, look no further than Bio-Cleanse. Our professionals are the best in cleaning and restoring your property to perfection after a crime scene investigation.

Bio-hazard cleaning – why and what?

Mention the term bio-hazard, and we think of a risk to human health or the environment arising from biological work, especially with microorganisms. In simple words, if any living organism comes in contact with a biological hazard, it can pose a threat to its health.

We might know what a bio-hazard material is and what the causes are for it. But do you know what is involved in a bio-hazard clean-up?

If you do know (Great!), if not, then go ahead and read this blog.

When a bio-hazard clean-up takes place, the situation is completely assessed with caution and all items like carpet, furniture, wallpaper, etc. are removed and dealt with carefully. They get disposed in bio-hazard bags at a federal and state regulated site for disposal. If you think wearing a safety gear is enough to take up the task for a bio-hazard cleaning then you’re wrong, because no family member, colleague or regular cleaner are trained to deal with bio-hazardous situations. A professional however will have blood-borne pathogen (BBP) training, own protective gear, would be receiving regular inoculation of Hepatitis B vaccine and exposure evaluation.

Therefore bio-hazard cleaning is no layman task and requires well trained and equipped professionals. Bio Cleanse Services is a company dedicated to clean and remediate the affected area by following strict guidelines in the clean-up, removal and disposal of bio-hazardous/bio-medical waste.

Musty Smell? Time to get some cleaning done!

Bio Cleanse - Mould Remediation
Source : Wikipedia
Sometimes you might have sensed a musty smell in your/your near ones’ home. This could be due to various reasons. One of the reasons could be that of mould growth.

Moisture and a small colony of mould are the only requirements for mould infestation. Mould infestation do not require a very long time to spread. There have been many cases of allergic reactions and respiratory disorders reported due to this. It has been noted that poor lighting conditions and lack of proper ventilation also support mould growth.

As mould grows, it releases foul gases in the air. These gases are responsible for the musty smell in houses. They get absorbed in carpets, clothes, curtains and other cloth materials. Once this smell permeates in, cleaning becomes difficult. 

That’s when it’s time to consult professionals for cleaning services. Bio Cleanse Pty Ltd is experienced in Mould Remediation and Odour Clean-up. Contact us on 042 741 1789 or visit http://www.bio-cleanse.com.au/services/ and we will do a complete clean-up for you.

Which Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) You Should Use and When


Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is used in biohazard clean-up processes in order to prevent the contagion of any illness or the occurrence of injury.

Donning the right type of PPE is rudimentary as a large part of biohazard clean-up processes are done by humans, who are equally vulnerable in getting infected or injured during/after the process. Whether it is a clean-up professional or a layman who handles the biohazard situation before the professionals’ arrive, using the right type of PPE is a MUST.

PPE can range from hard hats to face mask to body suits to protective footwear. It is essential to know which PPE to use and when.

Head Protection

The preferred and trusted choice for head protection is a hard hat. It shields the human head from getting injured by any collapsing or falling objects. It also reduces electrical shock exposures or burns to the head. In biohazard clean-up, hard hats can be of tremendous help during fire damage restoration.

Face Protection

A face shield is used to protect the face from any debris, flying particles, dust, radiation, vapours, chemical splashes, flames and potentially infectious bodily fluids. The face shield is used in conjunction with goggles, which serves the same purpose for the eyes. Respiratory protection should also be used in order to prevent inhalation of harmful chemicals and substances.
Face protection is a must in most of biohazard clean-ups, especially, meth lab cleaning, fire damage restoration and mould clean-up.

Hand Protection

Gloves must be used to prevent infection from bodily fluids, harmful substances, chemical burns, electrical shocks, abrasions, cuts, gashes, punctures, fractures and amputations. Elbow-length gloves or finger guards must be used if the need arises. One must select the correct variety of gloves to be used, depending on the nature of the situation. The types of gloves available are synthetic gloves, leather gloves, mesh gloves, canvas gloves, aramid fibre gloves and aluminised gloves. It is important to note that once used, gloves must be disposed. Using second-hand gloves is as good as handling the biohazard with bare hands. Hand protection is of a primary importance in handling biohazard clean-up, involving blood and other bodily fluids.

Body Protection

Body suits or vests should be used to protect the body from exposure to blood, blood borne pathogens and accidents. These protective coveralls are also used in various clean-up processes, especially in Dry Ice Blasting.

Reporting During a Bio-Hazard Cleanup

A bio-hazard occurrence like murder, blood spill, accidents and water damage can uncover a host of infections, many of which remain undetectable by the naked eye. Even if the area appears virtually clean after evacuation of the bio-hazard materials, infections can seep deep into crevices and pores of surrounding materials. For example, in the event of a murder, the blood might be splattered in various areas and spills can get into absorbent wooden floor or walls or matting. Hence, it is necessary that a cent per cent clean up be carried out to eliminate all risks of potential diseases and infections. 

It is necessary to hire a professional cleaning service, as bio-hazardous waste can have a serious impact on other untrained professionals such as insurance agents or police personnel. When the lights of the ambulance and police cars depart, it is the cleaning professionals who take up the charge. And the cleaning is more than a matter of just mop up and trash. It involves thorough assessment of the area, application of proper and safe scientific procedures, following of fixed protocols and protection of the contaminated area from further infecting the surrounding inmates or neighbours. 

One important step in the bio-remediation process is thorough documentation or reporting. This documentation starts right from the planning stage to completion. Every step, every protocol used, every methodology and every assessment procedure should be properly reported by the professionals along with the respective on-site photographs. The documentation should also give a risk analysis of the exposure to disease and infections before and after the cleanup. In the end, the company should give a catalog of the particular in-situ bioremediation process.

The documentation process has manifold uses. Not only does it adhere to a systematic approach of a critical situation like a bio-hazard event, it also facilitates smooth settlements between the policy holder and the insurance company in the process of making any claims of loss. It will also make both the parties understand why some structural materials were removed or disposed or displaced or altered.

At Bio-Cleanse Pty Ltd, we are adept at handling all types of bio-remediation and cleaning services with thorough documentation and reporting procedures. Visit www.bio-cleanse.com.au to avail of our services.

JAIL/PRISON CELL CLEANUP


Bio - Cleanse: Jail/Prison cell cleanup


Incarceration cells or jails often conjure the image of a gloomy room with one-away entry and exit that is filled with dust, dirt and odour. One is led to believe that this is as cleanest it can get. On several occasions, a prison cell becomes the scene of various bio-hazardous wastes such as sweat, faeces, urine, vomit, bodily fluids, saliva or blood.

Cleaning the aforementioned scenario is a professional task as lay people are not readily willing to help in the cleanup process. Secondly, cleaning such bio-hazardous waste is a risky affair as it is a carrier of many pathogens which can cause diseases such as AIDS, Tuberculosis and Hepatitis C. Thirdly, prompt cleaning intervention is necessary, as officials working in the prison such as policemen and staff can get infected by the exposure to these pathogens.

A thorough bio-hazardous cleaning is a must due the following scenarios, as listed below:
  • The prisoners can engage in a dirty protest – a situation where by they will involve in defecating or urinating in cell quarters or themselves, as a form of fighting back. Sometimes, they might do so as a symptom of a psychological problem. 
  • The pathogens can lodge into cracks and crevices of the walls. 
  • Communal areas are being used by many inmates and can be the site for bio-hazardous wastes. 
  • Cleaning calls for professional intervention as health and safety regulations have to be adhered to. 
  • The inmates can get into fights or brawls where there can be a lot of sweat and bloodshed. 
  • Prison lockers need to be professionally cleaned, as pathogens can be left behind if the lockers were used to contain blood-covered objects/clues. If the lockers are used to store handcuffs that were used on suspects, then this also calls for intervention. 
Due to the confined nature of the prison cells, rapid contagion is highly probable. Hence, quick and professionally cleaning bio-hazardous wastes in prison is imperative. Contacting professional services can also guarantee operational efficiency and minimum time required to bounce back to routine activities.

Bio-Cleanse provides prison decontamination services.
