Workers who handle blood and body fluids are covered by the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030. It calls for protective equipment, safe handling and proper disposal. Ask any team what training it has and how it disposes of waste.
It is not recommended. Fluids can carry germs, and household cleaning often spreads contamination or pushes fluid deeper. Soaked materials also need regulated disposal. A team in protective gear can do the job safely.
Lease terms and local law decide. A landlord may handle it through the owner's insurance, or the tenant's estate or renters policy may apply. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can explain the details for a specific case.
