We have all seen the recent media coverage on 'superbugs' or germs that are now resistant to our strongest antibiotics. If this trend continues and if the way we control germs isn't improved, infections that were once considered minor may become fatal. Consumers are being made aware of the ways in which green cleaning is most effectively used.

"Health and safety concerning the use of green antimicrobial products in San Diego flood and mold remediation companies should be of top priority in homes where pets, children and the elderly live," says Joe Colombo, owner of San Diego water damage company Gold Coast Flood Restorations.

One way to help control the rise and spread of superbugs and resistant viruses is by using green cleaning chemicals. Green cleaning refers to using cleaning methods, products and chemicals with environmentally friendly ingredients designed to preserve human health and environmental quality.

Green cleaning techniques and products avoid the use of chemically reactive and toxic cleaning products which contain various toxic chemicals, some of which emit volatile organic compounds causing respiratory and dermatological problems.

Colombo, a certified mold remediation specialist, went on to say, "Antimicrobials in green cleaning chemicals play an important and ongoing role in public health and safety. Green cleaning services go beyond just using environmentally friendly cleaning chemicals. It’s also about reducing waste and enhancing cleaning efficiency."

Benefect Botanical Disinfection Technology

According Colombo, a green cleaning product called Benefect Botanical Disinfectant technology is the green answer to many health concerns in San Diego mold remediation issues. That is why he uses them in his San Diego water damage and mold remediation company.

The active ingredient is the highly specialized yet all natural Thyme Oil. In nature, plants produce germ-killing 'essential oils' to protect themselves from invading microbes, similar to how our bodies produce antibodies for our protection. Benefect is a revolutionary blend of these antimicrobial extracts, particularly from the herb Thyme, and achieves remarkable efficacy without using any traditional synthetic chemicals.

To put it simply, Benefect is a 'plant immune system' in a bottle. Benefect's groundbreaking botanical technology is proven to kill over 99.99% of bacteria and surpasses the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's efficacy requirements for broad spectrum hospital disinfectants.

It is medically proven that Green Cleaning Programs play a vital role in creating a healthier environment. The results are convincingly positive: Green cleaning programs in homes and in hospitals benefit people and the planet.
