Discretion is part of the work. Vehicles are unmarked, the crew keeps its voice down and nothing about the job is shared with neighbors. Coverage includes O'Fallon, Saint Charles and the surrounding area of St. Charles County.
About 19% of homes in O'Fallon are rented, so many cleanups involve owners working directly with their own homeowners insurance company. Older adults make up about 14% of residents in O'Fallon, below the Missouri average, so calls come from a broad mix of situations, including accidents, crime scenes and rental turnovers.
Biohazard remediation is more than wiping a surface. The cleanup team plans the work around OSHA's bloodborne pathogen rules (29 CFR 1910.1030), then uses PPE, containment and careful removal steps that keep exposure low for everyone nearby.
