SERVPRO Uses Proprietary Disinfecting Agents That Defeats Flood Damage in St. Anthony

Stormy weather is sweeping across parts of the nation, bringing strong winds, heavy rains, and flooding. It can be a difficult time, with flash flooding arising rapidly and often with little warning. Not only can they sweep up everything in their path, including cars, people, and pets, but it carries along all sorts of nasty debris. When floodwaters rage through buildings, tree limbs, dead animals, bacteria, dirt, and chemicals enter your home.

Disinfecting & Sanitizing Homes with Black Water is Vital

When flood damage hits St. Anthony's homes, the highly contaminated water can is deadly. A crucial part of flood restoration is not only cleaning but disinfecting all impacted surfaces and content. SERVPRO produces many of the products we use, including:

• Cleaning products
• Deodorizing compounds
• Disinfectants

SERVPROXIDE is one of the products we use to restore your home to livable condition. It is a proprietary hospital-grade disinfectant. It is EPA registered and has the lowest toxicity rating the EPA offers. Not only does it do an exceptional job of sanitizing, but it is fragrant-free. We use SERVPROXIDE in many ways, including:

• Eliminates odors via disinfecting and oxidation
• Use directly on surfaces with towels
• Misting or spraying, especially for HVAC systems
• Electrostatic spraying for even application

SERVPROXIDE is a potent sanitizing tool that has EPA approval for claims against things such as E. coli, Rotavirus, staphylococcus, and other bacterial and virus concerns. With the potential for harmful organisms in floodwater, homeowners should never attempt to clean up the premises independently.
