Usually not when the fluid has soaked through. Mattresses, couches and padded furniture absorb liquid deep inside, and surface cleaning does not reach it. Soaked items are typically removed and disposed of as waste.
Blood and other body fluids that may carry germs are treated as biohazards. Some, such as blood, can carry bloodborne pathogens like hepatitis B and HIV. Cleanup crews handle all of them with the same protection, because the source of a fluid is not always known.
There is no single best product. Waste is removed first, then an EPA-registered disinfectant is used by the label on the surface in question. Porous materials such as carpet and mattresses often have to be removed rather than cleaned.
At a home, the owner or the family usually pays. At a rental or a business, the landlord, property owner or employer often gets the cleanup done. In a rental, the lease and local law decide, and a landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say.
Call 911 first if anyone is hurt. Keep people and pets away from the area, open a window if you can, and do not wipe or spray the spill. Take photos for insurance and note what the fluid touched.
Dried waste can still carry germs, and sweeping or scrubbing it can send particles into the air. That is why it is cleaned carefully with protection and a disinfectant instead of dry sweeping or vacuuming.
