Once contaminated materials are removed, remaining damp structure needs controlled drying. Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials.
- Keep children, pets and visitors outside contaminated rooms.
- Stop using toilets, showers, sinks and laundry until a septic company evaluates the system.
- Avoid touching sewage, wet carpeting or exposed electrical equipment.
- Photograph visible damage from a dry, safe location.
- Move clean belongings only when the route does not cross wastewater.

A seasonal shift may change outdoor work conditions without changing the need for indoor sanitizing.
