Human Feces and Urine Questions Answered for Holmesburg, Philadelphia, PA

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.

Does homeowners insurance cover feces and urine cleanup?

It depends on the cause. Many homeowners policies cover sudden events, such as a toilet overflow, while some exclude long-term damage or neglect. Renters policies often cover the renter's belongings but not the building. Call the insurer before cleanup starts.

Is there a chemical that dissolves human feces?

Not one that is safe to pour on a floor or carpet. Dissolving waste spreads it deeper into materials. The right method is to lift the waste, remove soaked porous items and disinfect the surface.

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.

Can I remove feces manually?

A small amount on a hard surface can be removed with protection and a disinfectant. Do not do it with an open cut on your hands, and do not sweep or scrub dried waste. For large amounts or deep stains, call a human feces removal team.

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.
