Yes. Blood on seats, floor mats, door panels and in trunks is cleaned and disinfected, and heavily soaked upholstery may need removal. Vehicle jobs follow the same protective steps as work inside a building.
Surface stains may lift, but blood that soaked through carpet and padding can sit in the subfloor and keep carrying germs and odor. In that case the soaked carpet and padding are cut out and disposed of as waste.
Yes. Dried blood can still carry germs, and some viruses, such as hepatitis B, can last on surfaces for a long time. Scraping or scrubbing dried blood can also put particles into the air, so it should be handled with protection and disinfected.
Disposable absorbent towels are usually used so they can be bagged and thrown out as waste. Cloth towels that touch blood become contaminated laundry and need careful handling. Either way, wear gloves and never reuse a towel on another surface.
Use disposable gloves, eye protection, disposable absorbent towels and a disinfectant that is EPA-registered for bloodborne pathogens. Follow the label for how long the surface must stay wet. Bag the used materials and keep them away from other people.
