The Ebola virus is the latest threat that bio-remediation professionals will have to combat and it’s been no surprise that I’ve received this question numerous times from restoration and remediation clients of mine.

The effective use of disinfectants as part of our strategy to return contaminated surfaces to a sanitary condition has been known for many years.

The 18th annual American Bio-Recovery Association (ABRA) Conference will take place this summer from August 4-7 in New Orleans.

SorbTech has released a cementatious-based blood-borne pathogen cleaning power for the collection and solidification of all forms of bodily fluids in its BioSet product.

For many business owners, expanding to include hoarding cleanup in addition to existing restoration and remediation services is seemingly an easy decision.

Perception isn’t always reality. And when it comes to hoarding, the “reality” shows that are broadcast across various cable networks are a far cry from the proper protocol that should be followed on such jobs.

We constantly get calls from the disaster restoration companies in our area about cleaning and sanitizing the duct systems in homes and businesses following a fire, flood or other catastrophe.

The first case of Ebola in the United States was confirmed on September 30, 2014 when Thomas Eric Duncan was diagnosed after traveling to Dallas, TX from Liberia. 

Earlier this month, Thomas Eric Duncan became the first person in the United States to be diagnosed with the Ebola virus following his return from Liberia.

In the news and on the Internet, it’s next to impossible to avoid the mention of “Ebola.” Misinformation and panic characterize much of the discussion, as Americans rightly fear what could happen were the deadly virus to reach our shores.
