• Removing sewage-contaminated water and debris
• Cleaning and disinfecting surfaces, floors, and appliances
• Treating the area with antimicrobial agents to eliminate bacteria and viruses

Effects of Sewage Contamination

Untreated sewage contamination can lead to serious health concerns, including:

Will Lime Clean Up Sewage?

Lime is a commonly used disinfectant for various applications. However, it is not effective for cleaning up sewage. Lime’s high pH can neutralize acids, but it does not have the ability to kill bacteria and viruses present in sewage. Professional sewage cleanup services utilize specialized products and techniques to ensure thorough disinfection.
