Is a squalid home a biohazard?

How do you clean a house in unsanitary condition?

Remove trash and spoiled food first, then waste and soiled materials, then scrub and disinfect, and finish with odor treatment. Protective gear is important, and mixed cleaning chemicals should never be used together.
