Every day cleaning chemicals contain harmful chemicals that we may be unaware of. The overall goal of cleaning is to have a clean and healthy environment for our family or businesses. We use cleaning products that promise to make our homes cleaner, more sterile, smell better which they actually do. We remove the germs and minimize viruses and bacteria, but in the process, we inhale toxic chemicals and expose our loved ones unknowingly. 

How do we work to trade in our hazardous cleaning products for natural green products? The chemicals found in common cleaning products can have many negative impacts, including contributing to asthma, cancer, and increased birth defects, according to the Environmental Working Group’s (EWG) Cleaning Supplies and Your Health. With the potential negative impact of current chemicals in cleaning products, the need for green cleaning is necessary. The increasing popularity of “being green” has caused many companies to see this as an opportunity to capitalize on its popularity.  Green washing is causing a lot of distrust in the idea of being green and may sway consumers to continue to use the products they are comfortable with, which may include toxic ingredients. Also, many companies do not fully disclose their ingredients, which makes evaluation about the health and environmental impacts difficult. 

Every day cleaning products may contain toxic ingredients. For example, butyl cellosolve can be found in many spray cleaners, and all-purpose cleaners. Despite being found in common products, the products still continue to be used. Butyl cellosolve can irritate the mucous membranes and cause liver and kidney damage.

Using natural green products, inflict minimal or no harm on the environment. Green brands can help to push for a cleaner environments, such as Method products. Along with the products being naturally derived, the company also works to make sure every bottle they design goes through a rigorous process to ensure that it’s as green as possible. The goal is not to advertise for companies but to choose products that work best for my clients.

In the end, the use of green products is one certain solution to save our planet and ourselves. Going green as we maintain the cleanliness and sanitation of our homes and businesses can lessen pollution, health problems, and climate change and save water, petroleum and trees. It will also reduce the amount of waste produced by commercial manufacturers too.

Los patógenos transmitidos por la sangre son microorganismos que son infecciosos y pueden contaminar a otros humanos. 5.6 millones de trabajadores corren el riesgo de estar expuestos a patógenos transmitidos por la sangre y toda exposición ocupacional pone a los trabajadores en riesgo de infección. La exposición ocurre cuando el patógeno entra en contacto con las membranas mucosas de los empleados o se rompe en la piel. Siempre use la precaución universal y trate todos los fluidos sanguíneos y corporales de todos los pacientes como infecciosos, y asegúrese de tomar precauciones para minimizar la exposición. Use el EPP adecuado. Nunca coma, beba, fume o aplique bálsamo de lib en un área que pueda estar infectada. Nunca comprima manualmente la basura, ya que los objetos afilados o las agujas pueden estar ocultos en su interior. Nunca reutilice esponjas o toallas que se hayan utilizado para la limpieza infecciosa. Use pinzas u otros medios mecánicos para recoger objetos punzantes caídos. Maneje la ropa contaminada lo menos posible con la menor agitación posible. Los objetos afilados y las agujas pueden estar ocultos en la ropa. Cuando limpie un derrame, hágalo de manera que no cause salpicaduras ni salpicaduras. Use limpiadores apropiados y lávese las manos con jabón antibacteriano. Asegúrese de desinfectar cualquier equipo después del uso. 62-88% de las lesiones SHARPS son prevenibles. Los profesionales de la limpieza deben ser educados en los riesgos de los patógenos transmitidos por la sangre como una parte importante de su capacitación. La mejor defensa es una ofensiva completa.

Did you know that mold poses dangerous health risks, that it can extensively damage your building, and that it can even drive your property value down? 

If you see mold in your building, you really can’t afford not to hire a professional to remove it.  There is no price on your health, and continued exposure to mold can lead to devastating repercussions, including coughing, wheezing, bronchitis, and even pneumonia.  For someone with a compromised respiratory or immune system, this could prove fatal!

In addition to the mold you can see, there is likely patches growing in hidden places - behind walls, underneath carpets, in basements, attics, and closets. If you experience any sort of flooding, leakage, or spill, mold can start growing within as little as 24 hours. As dangerous as mold is, it is never wise to rely on do-it-yourself methods to manage it.  You really need a mold remediation specialist!

Mold re-mediators do more than simply removing the mold from your home.  They identify the source of the mold, which is essential to prevent it from coming back.  If you have any kind of moisture leak, defective ventilation system, or standing water issues, you are at risk for continued mold growth.  An initial cleaning alone will not solve the problem.  It is vital that you allow a mold remediation professional to locate the source of the mold, eliminate the source of its growth, and then to establish a successful preventative program. 

Are you still not convinced that you need to hire a professional?  Consider this – no matter how thoroughly you clean the area where mold has been found, you have no way of knowing if the airborne mold spores have truly been eliminated.  Professional mold re-mediators utilize High Efficiency Particulate Arrestor (HEPA) vacuums to ensure that all residual mold particles are gone.  The filters in regular vacuums will not sufficiently pick up mold spores and can even serve to spread them.  Additionally, you probably have limited knowledge on the safety practices and precautions of treating mold infestation.  By following EPA approved safety guidelines, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE), professional mold re-mediators ensure the safety of all individuals in your home, including the workers removing it. 

There truly is no substitute for hiring an IJCSA certified mold remediation specialist.  Don’t wait for your mold problem to destroy your property and your health.  See our IJCSA directory below and remove the problem at its source!
