While there currently aren’t any set dates, we are seeing progress towards a reopening in the forms of parks, hiking trails, and beaches opening back up in California for passive use.

Any reopening will need to be done with great care and attention to detail involving the cleanliness and safety of your establishment, be it a school, a business, or your home.

Death is not a subject that most people want to talk about, but when it happens it can leave us shocked and unprepared to deal with the aftermath. No matter the cause of death, there still must be clean up efforts involved.

Since blood and body fluids can carry and transmit diseases from one person to another, any  bio cleanup situation (after a death or violent crime) must be handled as if it were a biohazard. HIV, hepatitis B and C are primary concerns, as well as malaria, syphilis, Creutzfeldt-Jakob (mad cow disease) and many other virus' and bacteria. Considering the possibilities to come in contact with contaminated tissues and fluids during bio cleanup, Clean Earth Restorations highly recommends using a *CTS Decon service to do the work.
