Properties of an Ideal Disinfectant Neutral pH (preferably 6.5 to 7.5)
Let me begin by saying, the “ideal” or perfect disinfectant does not actually exist. This is because the extremes of safety and efficacy are often at odds with one another in use applica tions and during product devel opment. Use the partial list that follows as a comparison metric against which you will be able to evaluate the many disinfec tant options available today.
The farther one moves away from neutrality (pH of 7.0), the greater the likeli hood a substance will burn, corrode, or irritate; and the harsher a chemical will be on the surfaces it is applied. Excellent cleaning ability Debris removal, along with a reduction in actual microorganism account for reducing microorganism contamination up to 90%. 1:64 concentrate (2 ounces of solution per gallon of water) Though super-concentrates often do not contain enough material after diluting for effective widespread cleaning ability and odor control. Hard water compatibility Hard water is water that has a high mineral content. This mineral content affects how well some disinfectants work. If your facility is in an area with hard water, check labeling before use. Ease of Use Time is money, and the more steps it takes to do a job, the more it generally costs a facility to do that job. You want to utilize products easy to use and safe to use. Pleasant Fragrance If an odor bothers you, you can bet it also bothers animals who have a much more heightened sense of smell than we do. Odors create a negative impression of your facility and also add unwanted stress to animals as well as to your staff. Spectrum of Activity You want to utilize products having a superior spectrum of activity against major pathogens of concern to the animal care industry. You need a com plete and balanced package...

Read Before you Use Bleach
Bleach is Unstable • Bleach is inactivated by organic matter, light, and time. • EPA requires labeling stating “Degrades with age” • B leach loses up to half its actives within 60 days Bleach is Not an Effective Cleaner • Bleach must remain on surfaces for 10 to 30 minutes. • There is no sustained release of actives. • Because bleach has an alkaline pH of 11.5 Bleach is Corrosive • L ye must be added to stabilize this corrosive chemical • Bleach is a very potent upper respiratory irritant • Mixing bleach with acids releases toxic chlorine gas
Because of its instability, bleach solutions should be discarded every couple of hours.

How Aqueous Ozone Cleans and Kills Microbes Naturally
Ozone is one of the strongest oxidizers known to man. This makes it 50% more powerful than chlorine and up to 3000 times faster de stroying microorganisms. Ozone destroys microorganisms by reacting with oxidizable cellular components. Therefore, membrane phospho lipids, intracellular enzymes, proteins, and genomic material are tar geted by ozone; these reactions result in cell damage and death of microorganisms. Ozone destroys viruses by diffusing through the pro tein coat into the nucleic acid core, resulting in damage of the viral RNA. At higher concentrations, ozone destroys the capsid, or exterior protein shell by oxidation.
The use of aqueous ozone as a powerful safe and natural germ killer goes back over 180 years

Electrostatic Sprayer Cleaning and Disinfecting Technology
Electrostatic sprayer technology uses an electrostatic charge to disperse cleaning or disinfecting solutions as a fine mist. When sprayed, the droplets receive a positive electrical charge, allowing them to be attracted to negatively charged surfaces, much like a magnet. This ensures even distribution and complete coverage, even on hard-to-reach areas such as corners, crevices, and the underside of objects. Unlike traditional spray-and-wipe methods, electrostatic sprayers reduce chemical waste and improve efficiency by using less solution while covering more surface area. The charged droplets wrap around surfaces, providing 360-degree disinfection, making it particularly effective in high-traffic areas such as hospitals, schools, and offices. This innovative cleaning technology is especially useful in preventing the spread of pathogens, including viruses and bacteria, making it a valuable tool in maintaining hygiene and public health.
Charged particles are attracted to surfaces leading to an even spread and adherence to the surface, increasing efficiency and drastically reducing human error.

Dirty drains can cause strong odors in animal facilities. What is Growing in Your Drain?
Accumulated waste, hair, and organic matter in drains create an environment for bacteria, mold, and fungi to thrive, leading to foul smells. Decomposing urine and feces can also release ammonia and sulfur-based compounds, worsening air quality. Clogged or slow draining systems contribute to stagnant water, increasing microbial growth and intensifying odors. Regular cleaning, enzymatic drain treatments, and proper waste disposal help prevent buildup and control smells. Maintaining a well-ventilated space and ensuring proper drainage design can further minimize odor issues, promoting a healthier environment for animals and staff. How Enzymes Work Enzymes destroy bacteria, mold, and fungi in animal care facilities by breaking down the organic materials that these harmful microbes need to survive and grow. Common waste in these environments— like urine, feces, food spills, and dander—creates ideal conditions for microbial growth. Enzymes such as proteases (which break down proteins), lipases (which break down fats), and amylases (which break down starches) target and digest these organic substances at the molecular level. By removing the food sources and sometimes disrupting the outer structure of microbes, enzymes make it difficult for bacteria, mold, and fungi to thrive. Unlike chemical disinfectants that may leave harmful residues, enzyme-based cleaners are biodegradable, non-toxic, and safe for animals and staff. They can also reach into tiny cracks, porous surfaces, and biofilms where microbes hide, providing a deeper and longer-lasting clean. This makes enzyme cleaners a smart, eco-friendly solution for maintaining hygiene in animal care facilities.

What Is Nose Blindness?
Solutions to Combat Nose Blindness & Maintain a Fresh Facility: Regular Deep Cleaning • Use enzymatic cleaners to break down pet odors at the source. • Disinfect and sanitize floors, walls, kennels, and grooming tables frequently. • Wash pet bedding, towels, and grooming tools regularly. Proper Ventilation & Air Filtration • Ensure good airflow with ventilation systems, exhaust fans, and open windows when possible. • Use HEPA air purifiers to filter out dander, hair, and odor particles. • Change air filters regularly to maintain air quality. Odor Control Products • Use pet-safe deodorizers and air fresheners that neutralize smells instead of masking them. • Activated charcoal and baking soda can absorb odors in enclosed spaces. • Essential oil diffusers (with pet-safe oils) can provide a pleasant scent. Routine Inspections by Fresh Nose • Have an employee or trusted outsider do a “smell test” regularly. • Encourage staff to step outside for fresh air and then re-enter to assess odors with a fresh perspective. Grooming & Pet Hygiene • Bathe pets regularly, especially those staying for extended periods. • Ensure proper drying after bathing to prevent mildew smells. Keeping a fresh-smelling facility improves customer experience and increases the likelihood of repeat business. Would you like help with specific product recommendations or staff training tips?
Nose blindness, or olfactory fatigue, is a common issue in animal care facilities like kennels, groomers, and veterinary clin ics. Staff members who spend long hours in these environments may become desensitized to persistent odors, making it difficult to recognize when the facility smells unpleasant to customers. However, first-time visitors and returning clients will immediately notice any bad smells, which can impact their decision to come back.

reproductive and immune system disorders. Petroleum Distillates (AKA: Napthas)
Linked to cancer, lung damage, lung inflammation and damage to mucus membranes. Distillation is the basic process used to separate and purify components of crude oil. These are found in gasoline, kerosene and mineral seed oil. Pesticides commonly contain petroleum distillates. EDTA A skin irritant leading to allergies, asthma and skin rashes. Used as an alternative to phosphates to reduce mineral hard-ness in water. EDTA acts as a foam stabilizer. Does not biodegrade and can redissolve toxic heavy metals in the environment, allowing them to re-enter the food chain. Artificial Fragrances Toxic to fish and mammals. Causes allergies, skin and eye irritation. Does not easily biodegrade. One of the top five allergens in the world, and has many effects on the brain and nervous system. Phosphates Used to remove hard-water minerals to make detergents more effective and prevent dirt from settling back into clothes during wash. When released into the environment, they can stimulate the growth of certain marine plants. Used as builders in Laundry Detergents. continued pg 27
