Research shows that tradition-al pest control is ineffective against bedbugs. However, the pests are vulnerable to high tempera-tures sustained over a short period of time, known by those in the industry as thermal remediation. ThermEx is a green, chemical-free solution that ensures a clean, quick and quiet approach to ridding facilities of pesky pests like bedbugs. BLEACH WIPES The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently approved the registration of Clorox Professional’s Dispatch hospital cleaner disinfectant towels with bleach to kill Clostridium difficile ( C. diff ) spores in five minutes, the fastest C. diff contact time available. This is the first bleach-based wipe to receive EPA registration for C. diff . On top of C. diff , Dispatch towels with bleach are EPA-registered to kill 26 additional pathogens that cause health care associated infections (HAIs).

Circle Product Information no. 113 DUCTWORK COATINGS Controlled Release Technologies has developed three spe-cifically formulated coatings to solve prob-lems due to contami-nation, degradation and de-lamination in heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) units. Flex Seal is a National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 90A-compliant, mildew-resistant coating that permanently protects surfaces from degradation. Bioflex is a fungicidal coating that per-manently protects surfaces from mold-related contamination. Ductile is a low-viscosity coating that permanently protects HVAC ductwork from degradation and insulation de-lamination. FLOOR DEGREASER One of the unique things about the effective, high-performing bioactive product ES680 Super Floor Degreaser from Enviro-Solutions is that it not only cleans surfaces but eats contaminants as well. What’s more, it keeps on eating contaminants long after cleaning is over. Green-certified ES680, made from bacteria, enzymes, nutrients and surface cleaning agents, makes soiled, contaminated and sticky surfaces in theaters and kitchens cleaner and less slippery, removing mal-odors. In fact, it is so effective that it even eliminates the feeding sources for insects, helping to get rid of them, too. Enviro-Solutions Ltd.
