Sometimes. Some homeowners and renters policies cover cleanup after a covered event, and some exclude certain causes. Call the insurance company before work starts, take photos and keep every receipt. Ask the team whether it can supply paperwork.

It does when the source is removed. Smells from sewage, fluids or decay live in porous materials and subfloors, so crews take those out and treat the air. Air fresheners cover a smell for only a short time.
A good team inspects every treated surface, treats leftover odors and explains what it did. Some teams add swab tests. Ask what the final check includes and ask for a record of the work. Testing rules vary by place.
Common ones include blood, vomit, feces, sewage, mold, pest droppings and dead animals. Illness spread by sick residents can also leave germs on surfaces. Some of these need professional biohazard specialists.
A biological hazard is any living organism or material from one that can harm health. Examples are bacteria, viruses, mold, blood, bodily fluids, sewage and animal waste. Chemicals and radiation are a different type of hazard.
