Cleaning Up Blood On Hard Surfaces
For heavily blood saturated areas, use kitty litter to soak up the bulk of the body fluids. Then use a scoop or scraper to shovel the kitty litter into biohazard bags. When the bulk of the blood is contained, saturate the area with your disinfectant chemical. Allow the disinfectant to soak for several minutes before wiping up the blood. After there is no more visible blood, apply your disinfecting chemical to the already cleaned surface, allow it to sit for several minutes, and wipe away. This ensures thorough decontamination of any potential bloodborne hazards.
