Septic Overflow Cleanup Questions in Bishop Hill

The Bishop Hill crew uses a collection and disposal route appropriate to the water and local requirements.
Should sewage-covered boxes be moved through the house?
Avoid carrying contaminated items into clean rooms. The crew plans removal through a controlled path in the Bishop Hill property.
Is an odor enough to map sewage contamination?

No. Wastewater may remain beneath flooring and the septic cause may persist. Both the indoor materials and the system need assessment.
