Open windows for ventilation if you can, wear gloves, and clean and disinfect the rooms the sick person used. Pay attention to door handles, switches, bathrooms and bedding. You can get a cleanup team for larger or shared spaces.

It is the cleaning and disinfection of a space after contagious illness. Crews use protective gear, clean surfaces first and apply EPA-registered disinfectants matched to the germ. Contaminated waste is removed and disposed of correctly.

Some homeowners policies cover cleanup if a covered event makes the property unsafe, but many do not cover routine illness cleaning. Read your policy or ask your agent what applies. Call the insurer before cleanup starts and keep every receipt.
