Each disaster has its own level of trauma whether it be Katrina, the Asian tsunami of 2004, or Haiti, they all have the commonality of extremely high winds and water.  As structural devastation forces buildings and homes to be virtually uninhabitable, it is the onslaught of water that brings on the worst aftermath.  Bacteria and mold set in immediately which seeps into every nook and cranny that exists and here festers the mold and germs that grow and expand throughout this environment.  Wet, dark, and stillness,  creates the ripe scenario for dangerous living conditions as the air quality becomes infested with live bacterial growth that finds its way into the human lungs. 

 

If there was to be a magical apparatus that could be most beneficial, a gigantic “dry vac” that could immediately remove the water damage and humid atmosphere, would probably be most helpful.  Without electricity and a power sources, which are generally the first to get wiped out, lives and immediate safety become the priority as water damage sets in, planting its bacterial roots.

 

Commercial cleaning companies in Tampa such as Excel Building Services, understand the impact and danger involved with such devastations.  To a much lesser extent, they have experienced residential and commercial situations where destruction has occurred or been left unfettered with such bacterial infestation.  Mold and germs can actually be seen growing inside the walls of homes and buildings and creeping up the side of rooms.  Black in color and moist in touch, harbors the germs and bacterial cells that propagate its inherent life. 

 

The day to day office cleaning and janitorial duties that Excel must maintain actually take the preemptive approach towards warding off this very situation.  Bacteria stems from small germs and micro-organisms that have not been addressed and enabled to survive and grow.  It is this that most lavatories and office environments need the most attention.  Without a steady cleaning and “germ warfare” game plan, the battle is lost.  The casualties along the way are illnesses and absenteeism that represent a real dollar expense to any business that must pay its employees for sick days.  The health issues are probably even more insidious as long term development of diseases within the body gestate and never leave for years to come.   

 

How should you sanitize properly?  What are the appropriate steps to take in maintaining a healthy workplace? Questions like these should be addressed at all times.  For more information concerning this, contact Excel Building Services in Tampa.
