Yes, human feces can carry bacteria and viruses such as E. coli, hepatitis A and norovirus. In a home or business it should be cleaned with gloves, disposable tools and a disinfectant, or by a cleanup team when the amount is large.
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.

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.
