Tips for Choosing Disinfection Services of Household Environments

Bacteria, viruses, and fungi are all around you in your home, like anywhere else. Usually, these microorganisms do not always pose a serious threat to our health. Or at least, not so much that you have to eradicate them at any cost but COVID-19, coronavirus has changed our lives.

Today, many companies offer cleaning and disinfection services. Including pest control, vets, and HVAC. How to pick the best offer? Basically, it is about knowing the following essential information and making the right choice.

The basics of effective disinfection

For one thing, any exposed surface still needs the usual cleaning. In fact, all sorts of health risks can hide inside the dust in your house. Including germs and viruses. Thanks to dirt and scraps of food or organic material, harmful pathogens can thrive. So, cleaning by itself is not enough without a disinfection process.

Some environmental disinfection services provide a disinfecting fog treatment. But, for these procedures to be effective against COVID-19, specific disinfectants are needed, for example, products containing hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) without peracetic acid. Otherwise, it is like spraying a bush on the leaves to clean the dirt at the bottom. Check out any certificates. They detail the perceived effectiveness of the provided services.

Breaking the Chain of Infection

Taking precautions is the next step for long-term effectiveness. Moreover, the goal is to break the chain of infection. The International Scientific Forum on Home Hygiene suggest disinfecting frequently:

Your hands
Mobile devices with a touch screen
Kitchen, bathroom, and dining areas.

Choose household disinfection services that provide comprehensive results. At this point, disinfecting your house is like investing. As such, you do not want to invest in sanitizing a single room when the virus could harbor in the next.

Your plan for a safe and healthy home

Frequent and regular cleaning and disinfection are a must. In fact, they remain the most effective form of prevention against COVID-19. After the one-time disinfecting service, be sure to integrate a specific disinfecting routine. Create your own plan to protect your home environment and keep everyone safe.

Customer Testimonials

I was extremely pleased with Ashley’s team and they left my house extra-sparkling, making me look good for my in-laws’ visit. All traces of puppy fur and hard-to-remove gunk removed, and the house smelled clean, like lavender (not harsh chemicals). This is thorough, professional, fairly priced, and courteous service. All the stars!”

Stacey P.

“We are very pleased with the service we received with Dashing Maids. Their communication and customer service is superb! Ashley is professional and has great attention to detail. She took the time to take notes on all the areas in our house that I wanted to have cleaned during our first walk through, which I really appreciated. In the past, I’ve done walk throughs with other cleaning companies, explained what I wanted cleaned, they nod “yes” and then didn’t follow through. When Dashing Maids came to clean on our scheduled date, they were very efficient. Everything looked great when they were finished and I’m looking forward to having Dashing Maids return on a regular basis.”

Kara S.

“I have never had a cleaning service, but considered it often. Dashing Maids put a flyer on my door which intrigued me enough to call them. I was impressed with their initiative and enthusiasm that I hired them after our initial meeting. Now every other week I get to come home to a wonderfully clean house with their charming additions that make me smile. I’m not sure they are trying to turn my “black thumb” into a greenish one, but I haven’t killed the lucky bamboo they left as a surprise yet. I’d fully endorse them as a cleaning, Dashing Maids service.”

Maggie B.

“It’s so nice to come home to a sparkling clean house! I’ve worked with other cleaning companies in the past and Dashing Maids always provides a more thorough clean than I’ve found with other companies for a very reasonable price. Plus, they’re great with my dog and don’t mind that he’s at home when they come to clean. I highly recommend Dashing Maids!”

Miriam T.

“There is no one that cleans our house as well as Katie does! She is meticulous and genuinely loves to clean, and it absolutely shows. We love it when it is our cleaning day. I could not be happier with the services provided by her and the Dashing Maids company. They are responsive, timely, and have overall been a pleasure to work with. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable cleaning company.”

We've been fortunate to have Dashing Maids clean our home for the past several years. Ashley and her entire team have been great to work with. We'd recommend them without reservation. Most recently, Tori and Carol cleaned our home with detail and care.
