WHAT IS HOARDING?

Hoarding is a psychological condition that causes people to obsessively collect items and makes it difficult for a person to part with things once they are acquired. Many people don’t realize the health and safety hazards that hoarding brings, as it related to biohazardous materials. Extreme filth and feces can bring with it bacteria that should be disposed of as biohazardous waste.

 

WHAT IS LEVEL 1 HOARDING?

 

Level 1 hoarding is the least severe of the hoarding levels, and it often goes unrecognized by outside observers and the hoarder. The first phase of many Hoarding Disorders can include the following characteristics: 

  • Difficulty parting with redundant items  
  • Excessive shopping for items already in the home or that are not needed 
  • Stairs, doors, and windows in the home are accessible 
  • There are no noticeable odors in the home 
  • Little to no visible clutter on surfaces or in walkways 
  • Sanitation and cleanliness exist within the home

 

IMPORTANCE OF SAFETY GEAR DURING A HOARDING CLEANUP

Anyone who works in hoarding cleanup must be properly equipped and trained to handle biohazard materials. Otherwise, the bacteria transmitted through animal and human waste can cause infections and respiratory complications that have long-term effects.

It’s not uncommon for hoarding cleanup technicians to be exposed to a cocktail of human and animals waste, hypodermic needles, broken glass and black mold. Knowing this, Biomart technicians prepare for these hazardous working conditions by wearing personal protective gear that meets the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s Bloodborne Pathogen Standard, including:

  • Disposable mask
  • Purifying full-face respirator
  • Heavy exposure gloves
  • Puncture resistant gloves
  • Biohazard suits

Biomart Hoarding Cleanup uses proper training and the right equipment to allow everyone to remain safe in the remediation of a hoarder’s home.
