My dog passed away due to parvo last night. What should I disinfect in order not to spread the virus into my other dogs?

First off, I'm so sorry you lost Tumi to parvovirus! That is horrible for you and him, please accept my condolences. The problem with parvo is that it can live for months in the environment and home, and it's very hard to kill. I would keep your dogs from any areas where Tumi had been, and I will give you a website that details how to disinfect the home and environment. Make sure your dogs are up to date on their parvo vaccines, getting them now if they are not up to date on them. Should they show any signs of parvo, get them into your vet immediately. I hope this helps, and I am sorry for your loss :-( https://www.cuteness.com/article/disinfect-home-after-parvo
