Dried waste can still carry germs, and sweeping or scrubbing it can send particles into the air. That is why it is cleaned carefully with protection and a disinfectant instead of dry sweeping or vacuuming.
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.
It depends on the amount of fluid, the surfaces involved and how many rooms are affected. A small spill on tile is a short job. Fluids that reached carpet, padding or subfloor take longer because materials must be removed.
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.
