Yes. Odor usually fades once all of the source material is gone. When fluids soaked into porous materials, those materials are removed and the area is treated. A strong smell can mean contamination remains below the surface.
It depends on the cause and the policy. Sudden events are more often covered than long-term neglect. Ask the cleanup team whether it can supply the paperwork an insurer asks for and whether it bills the insurer directly.
Breathing the odor of feces is unpleasant and can irritate the nose, throat and eyes. Dried waste can also release particles when it is disturbed. Ventilate if you can, avoid sweeping or scrubbing, and call a cleanup team for large amounts.
Call 911 first if anyone is hurt. Keep people and pets away from the area, open a window if you can, and do not wipe or spray the spill. Take photos for insurance and note what the fluid touched.
Many homeowners policies cover crime or death cleanup after the deductible, but an ordinary illness may not be covered. Renters policies often cover cleanup but not the building. Call the insurer before cleanup starts, take photos and keep every receipt.
Wash the skin with soap and water right away, and rinse the eyes or mouth with clean water if fluid splashed there. Then talk with a doctor or the local health department about next steps. This is general information, not medical advice.
