When the waters recede, your mission shifts to eliminating hidden threats that can disrupt operations, such as contaminated facilities, mold outbreaks, and explosive mosquito surges, to name a few. Without pre-planned solutions, these hazards compromise shelters, slow responses, and put your personnel at risk for respiratory illness and mosquito-borne illnesses such as Chikungunya, Zika, and West Nile.
OdoBan® Disinfectant and Mildewstat and No Mosquitoz® insect repellent equip your team to stay ahead of these threats. With supplies staged in advance, you safeguard health, stabilize facilities, and keep operations mission-ready. Major Clean can support your needs with as little as a 10-day lead time.
Sanitation: Your First Line of Defense
Floodwater carries sewage, chemicals, and debris into shelters, staging areas, and response vehicles, and can contaminate every surface it touches. Left unchecked, mold and bacteria force facilities offline and delay responder safety.
Why it matters to your mission:
- Unsafe shelters = displaced residents
- Contaminated staging areas = compromised resources
- Bacteria and mold outbreaks = public health risks
OdoBan® Disinfectant and Mildewstat is your rapid-action solution:
- Eliminates bacterial and viral threats- 99.99% of bacteria and viruses in 60 seconds*
- Prevents and inhibits mold
- Works across shelters, vehicles, and staging facilities by spray, soak, or fogging
With OdoBan® staged ahead of the disaster, your team restores safe conditions fast and maintains uninterrupted operations.
Mosquitoes: The Next Battle After Floodwaters Recede
Standing water left by floods becomes mosquito breeding grounds within days, just as responders are working extended shifts outdoors in staging areas and field operations, increasing their exposure precisely when readiness is most critical. Protection for first responders and civilians alike is essential.
Operational risk:
- Surge in Chikungunya, Zika, and West Nile exposure
- Increased sick time and lowered force readiness
- Rising community health threats and potential outbreaks

Readiness Is Decided Before the Flood
Every devastating flood this year, from Milwaukee, WI, and Kerrville, TX, to Tennessee’s landslides, has underscored one truth: agencies with sanitation and mosquito control staged in advance recover faster.
Waiting until after disaster strikes means:
- Competing for a limited supply
- Losing critical operational hours
- Putting responders in unnecessary danger
Your team’s advantage is decided now, not later.
Call to Act Now
Floods will strike again. The only unknown is when and where. Your readiness depends on how you prepare today. Equip your team now with:
- OdoBan® Disinfectant and Mildewstat to secure facilities and restore safe environments
