While this time of year everyone has done the gobble til’ they wobble, SERVPRO Greater Waco is on emergency standby for Aunt Greta’s famous, “it’s ready when the smoke alarm tells me”, pie. What people may not know is this year’s mission is even much more extensive with the spread Covid-19. We are here to make your home Covid free and clean with our biohazard professionals ready to clean and disinfect according to protocols set by the CDC. Here are some tips from www.cdc.gov to make your holiday, virus free.

• Host outdoor activities rather than indoor activities as much as possible. If hosting an outdoor event is not possible, and you choose to host an indoor event, avoid crowded, poorly ventilated, or fully enclosed indoor spaces.

• Increase ventilation by opening windows and doors to the extent that is safe and feasible based on the weather.
• Provide or encourage attendees to bring supplies to help you and others stay healthy. For example, extra masks (do not share or swap with others), hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol, and tissues.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds or use hand sanitizer (with at least 60% alcohol).
• Host activities with only people from your local area as much as possible.
• Avoid contact with anyone who is sick.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
• Clean and disinfect commonly touched surfaces and any shared items between use when feasible. Use EPA approved disinfectants.
• Avoid large group settings

From our families, to yours, have a safe and happy holiday season.
