Most homes in Opelika are occupied, so waste cleanup is usually tied to illness, aging or a household in crisis, not an empty property. Many homes in Opelika are newer, but urine still soaks into carpet padding, drywall seams and grout lines.
The work often covers:
- Urine cleanup from carpet, padding, mattresses, subfloor and upholstery
- Bathrooms, hallways and bedrooms with waste on tile, grout and fixtures
- Soaked carpet, rugs and bedding cut out and bagged as waste
- Mattresses, couches and recliners that absorbed urine and cannot be saved
- Odor removal from the affected area once the source is gone

3. Lift, remove, clean
Waste is lifted with disposable tools. Anything porous that has soaked through is removed and packed.
4. Inspect and document
The crew inspects each affected area, hauls away the waste and can provide notes for insurance claims.

Human Feces and Urine Questions Answered for Opelika, AL
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.
Is human feces toxic to breathe?
The odor is unpleasant and can irritate the nose, throat and eyes. Dried waste can release particles when disturbed, so avoid sweeping or scrubbing it. Open a window if you can and call a cleanup team for large amounts.
What is the best cleaner for human feces?
No single product is best for every surface. Waste is removed first, then an EPA-registered disinfectant is used by the label. Porous materials such as carpet and mattresses often have to be removed rather than cleaned.
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.
Can breathing in feces fumes be harmful?
Strong fumes can cause headaches, nausea and irritation, especially in a closed room. Long-term exposure in a heavily contaminated home is a health concern. Leave the room, ventilate it and have a cleanup team remove the source.
