Yes. Touching feces or contaminated surfaces and then your mouth, nose or eyes can spread germs. Wear gloves and eye protection, wash your hands well afterward and keep children and pets away.
It depends on the amount of waste, the surfaces involved and how many rooms are affected. A small mess on tile is a short job. Waste that reached carpet, padding or subfloor takes longer because materials must be removed.
There is no safe rule for how long. Germs in waste can remain on surfaces and in dust after the waste has dried. That is why aged waste is still cleaned and disinfected with protection.
Wear gloves, lift the waste with a disposable tool and bag it. Hose down only hard surfaces away from drains, wells and play areas. For large amounts, near a home or on a worksite, a cleanup team can remove and disinfect.
A small amount on a hard surface can be removed with protection and a disinfectant. Do not do it with an open cut on your hands, and do not sweep or scrub dried waste. For large amounts or deep stains, call a human feces removal team.
