What adds to the value of our service is we don't
teach our people to be good, we simply hire good people
and recognizing how we treat our employees is just as important as the offices we clean.
Is there really a difference between Sanitizing and Disinfecting?
I'm asked this question time after time... Yes, there is...
Green cleaning products, glass plus cleaners, perfume smelling cleaners and multi - cleaners only sanitize. Meaning they only make the surface look clean. They do not kill Germs, Bacteria or Microorganisms that make us sick and can spread to other surfaces. Multi Surface cleaning products must remain on the surface wet up to 3 minutes or allow to air dry to be effective, in disinfecting. Those kind of instructions on a label aren’t a suggestion. They’re specifying under what conditions their product is considered sanitizing or disinfecting per EPA/CDC guidelines.
You collect more than a paycheck at work: Every time you touch your desk, keyboard, or telephone, you pick up germs. More than 10 million bacteria are on a typical office desk -- 400 times more bacteria than found on the average toilet seat -- which means that typing an email or making a call puts you at risk for illnesses.

Disinfecting kills Germs, Bacteria, Microorganisms and Bloodborne Pathogens
