I have been using the restroom at your place of business for some bacteriological tests to determine the efficacy of our cleaning services. I understand that these numbers are probably of no interest to you. But, I also feel that since the data was collected at your business you should be apprised of the results. Should I choose to use this information in the future, the name of the business where it was collected shall remain anonymous.

The chart below shows the ‘before’ and ‘after’ bacteria counts of the Initial Cleaning last September as well as the same tests performed earlier this month.

Clearly there are many ways to interpret the numbers. However, one number in which I have an interest is related to the efficacy of our service when we are not there. In other words, does the thoroughness of our cleaning methods influence the build up of bacteria between service calls compared to previous methods?

Looking at the ‘Before’  bacteria counts of last September and the counts taken this month shows that the build up of bacteria on the wall by the toilet is 6% of previous methods. The build up on the floor is 39%. Stated another way, the bacteria count on the wall was 16 times greater with your previous cleaning methods than with Washroom Wizard! services. The bacteria count on the floor was 2.5 times greater.

The other number in which I had an interest was the impact of our regularly scheduled cleaning service over time. There clearly is a decrease in bacteria levels after the initial cleaning but, is there a reduction over time with our regular cleaning service? The bacteria counts ‘after’ the regular cleaning service this month are at the lowest measurable level for the test (10 is the lowest). This shows an additional reduction of bacteria levels compared to the results after the initial cleaning. Subsequent cleanings do in fact reduce the bacteria count even more.
