Spring Cleaning – Spring Detox

Wednesday, April 24th, 2013

springAfter Tuesday night’s unseasonable snow storm, which led to a power outage at our office most of yesterday, I am ready for spring!  Playing catch up, I spent a good portion of last night reviewing the day’s emails – I was ready for a mental break.  Just then, I stumbled across an email entitled “Spring Cleaning Inside and Out”.  I suppose the fact that it referenced Spring Cleaning, or that it described your liver as a Janitor, or maybe the fact that I know the author grabbed my attention.  Any which way, this article sparked my interest to read on.  I was thinking cleaning inside and out of your house, however, this article adds a new perspective on cleaning – cleaning your body with at Spring Detox.  Check out Angela’s blog – http://growinspired.co/blog/connect/blog/2013/04/6-foods-for-a-spring-liver-detox

With spring on my mind we all need to do some Spring Cleaning.  While you may choose to ‘clean your body’ after reading Angela’s blog,  ServiceMaster by Ayotte has the muscle to help you out with any home or office spring cleaning needs.  Windows or floors, high dusting or carpets, we are here to supplement your regime.

Post Holiday Clean Up – We Provide General House Cleaning for Customers

Friday, January 18th, 2013

Cleaning up after the holiday season can be an unpleasant task to tackle.  We have some helpful hints to help you get thru your post holiday clean up.

Reduce/Remove Germs

  • Germs are everywhere, and you can’t escape them. You can, however, reduce their numbers with consistent, thorough cleaning. The greatest number of germs are concentrated in the kitchen and bathroom where the greatest cleaning effort should be made. Salmonella and E. coli can enter homes in raw meat, poultry and produce. Promptly and thoroughly cleaning up after handling these food items with appropriate antibacterial cleaners will help keep your family safe from these organisms.

Reduce/Remove Allergens

  • Air-borne particles, such as pollen, animal dander, microscopic refuse from insects and common dust make their way into homes. These air-borne particles make their way into your lungs and other systems, sometimes causing respiratory distress. Regular and thorough dusting, sweeping and vacuuming will help remove these allergens from your home.

Reduce/Remove Stress

  • Mess and disorder can increase the amount of stress in your life. A clean, organized home reduces stress. Living in a perpetual mess can affect your outlook on life with the extra effort needed to locate missing items. Housecleaning is a mild form of physical activity that can benefit healthy individuals as well as those suffering from depression, according to Georgia State University.

ServiceMaster by Ayotte also offers General House Cleaning.  Whether you need help with your Holiday Clean Up or are looking for a more permanent supplement to your cleaning regimen, ServiceMaster by Ayotte is here to help you keep your home clean and more enjoyable.  Call us today for your free, no-hassle house cleaning estimate!  But don’t just take our word for it – here is what our customers have said about our regular house cleaning division:

“I’ve never had a cleaning person and it was like coming home to a hotel. Heaven!” – Tim G.

“It is my favorite day of the month – the day that ServiceMaster by Ayotte comes to clean my home. What a wonderful thing to come home to – a CLEAN house! Thank you ServiceMaster!” – Tami E.

Employee Spotlight – Jeny Teletor

Monday, December 10th, 2012

Jeny started on September 10, 2012 and brings a wealth of knowledge and support to our team.  She is our primary Residential Coordinator, but is a support to our entire admin team, helping with inventory, marketing, scheduling and all of our bi-lingual communication needs.  We are blessed to have her on our team and look forward to her growth!!

Here is a little background from Jeny herself:

“I was born in Guatemala and raised in Faribault. I graduated high school from Bethlehem Academy, a private catholic school in Faribault. I was always the quiet one who loved to get things right on the first try. I attended the Minnesota School of Business for year wanting to get my associates but had to take a year off. I am planning on going back during spring. I was never sure what I wanted to work in; I tried many jobs like sales associate to a lab technician. I was always looking for something I wouldn’t get bored in. I finally came to a conclusion that I’ve always enjoyed working in an office. I like scanning paper work, answering phone calls, looking over documents, setting up appointments, and translating Spanish to English. I enjoy the office environment and do hope to move up in life. I’m a simple person with big goals.”

The Power of Yellow – Hurricane Sandy

Sunday, November 18th, 2012

During the wake of Hurricane Sandy, ServiceMaster franchises around the country gathered equipment, employees and other disaster restoration supplies and headed east. In the past during catastrophic events, ServiceMaster by Ayotte has sent crew and equipment to help pick up the pieces for local residents. We were there for the Cedar Rapids flood and other flooded areas of Iowa and the Dakota’s. The Power of Yellow is one to consider during a disaster. If our area was suffering from a flood (like the flood in the fall of 2010) we can pull equipment and help from franchises around the country if needed to provide additional support and service to those in need.

 

We wanted to share a couple of links to local news station features regarding our franchisees mobilizing to the east coast for Hurricane Sandy.

If you have any questions about how ServiceMaster by Ayotte can help you during a disaster please don’t hesitate to contact us. We provide emergency clean-up services for residents after a fire or flood as well as other disasters such as mold, trauma’s or smoke damage. Contact us at (877) 945-0993 for more information.

Turkey Fryer Safety

Sunday, November 18th, 2012

Grease and cooking-related claims more than double on Thanksgiving Day compared to the average day in November. Thanksgiving is a holiday to gather with friends and family to share a meal as a great reminder of what you have to be thankful for. Many families enjoy turkey on Thanksgiving Day. If you prepare your meal using a turkey fryer make sure to stay safe by keeping the following tips in mind.

 

-          Avoid oil spillover – don’t overfill the pot

-          Fry outside, away from your house or garage

-          Turn off the flame when lowering the turkey into the hot oil

-          Properly thaw the turkey before frying – ice can have an explosive effect when dropped into hot oil

-          Keep a grease-fire-approved extinguisher nearby

 

With the popularity of turkey frying increasing, U.S. fire departments are responding to more than 1,000 fires each year in which a deep fryer is involved. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) says deep fryer fires cause an average of 5 deaths, 60 injuries, and more than $15 million in property damage each year.

 

Here are some helpful links if you would like to learn more about turkey fryer safety or to see a demonstration of how explosive a turkey fryer fire can be:
