Yes. Human feces can carry bacteria and viruses such as E. coli, hepatitis A and norovirus. In large amounts, or when it soaks into building materials, it is cleaned with protective gear and disinfected like any other biohazard.
It depends on the amount of waste, the surfaces involved and how many rooms are affected. A small mess on tile is a short job. Waste that reached carpet, padding or subfloor takes longer because materials must be removed.
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.
Wash the wound with soap and clean water right away and contact a doctor. Bacteria in feces can cause infection. This is general information, not medical advice, so do not wait if the area looks red, swollen or painful.
In a rental, the lease and local law decide who pays, and a landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say. In most other cases the owner of the home or the person arranging the cleanup pays.
There is no safe rule for how long. Germs in waste can remain on surfaces and in dust after the waste has dried. That is why aged waste is still cleaned and disinfected with protection.
