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.
Washing hands with soap and water is widely taught as the single most effective step. In a contaminated space, cleaning and disinfecting surfaces with protective gear and the right product adds to it.

Wipe off soil, then use a product that is registered for the virus and safe for wood finishes. Check the label for contact time and test a small spot first. Heavily used or porous wood may need a professional's help.
