Bio Security Services LLC, owned by A.J. Feuerbach, of Clear Lake, is on the front lines during the COVID-19 pandemic and doing all it can to ensure the health and safety of its customers.

Feuerbach is an expert in the professional disinfecting of virus and contaminants from the environment with a gas-based sterilization solution.  Commercial buildings, schools (especially athletic facilities), and livestock systems are a big part of Bio Security Services LLC clientele.

Due to the COVID-19 virus, many businesses are looking to be disinfected.

“We have been helping a lot of area businesses during this time,” said Feuerbach.  “We have disinfected many area businesses including Stellar Industries, IMT, Metalcraft, Clear Lake Chamber of Commerce, Clear Lake Bank and Trust, North Iowa Coop and the Community Health Centers in Mason City and Fort Dodge, to name a few.”

Feuerbach said he and his team are bio secure themselves and adhere to very strict policies both on and off the job.  They enter and exit businesses in full PPE (personal protection equipment) for their safety and others.

“We also talk to our customers about the procedure so that they can ensure their customers that the building is disinfected and secure,” he added.

Bio Security Services LLC’s uses a Chlorine Dioxide disinfectant dispersal system that delivers a room-filling volume to penetrate the entire breathable area, as well as disinfect all surfaces.  Chlorine Dioxide is an EPA/FDA approved disinfectant, biocide sterilant, and sanitizing agent and does so as an oxide generator.  Before it is converted to a gas, it is stored as a tablet form sodium chlorite, an EPA approved disinfectant for Coronavirus (COVID-19).  CIO2 is a virus

cide, algicide, sanitizer, fungicide and disinfectant.  It also kills odor-causing bacteria, mold and mildew.  Chlorine Dioxide physically destroys the contaminant, does not leave a residue and there is no wiping or clean-up needed.

Feuerbach established his company in 2004 at the urging of his father, who worked for Iowa Select Farms, a swine industry in Iowa Falls.  Livestock and poultry require a regular treatment to prevent outbreak and loss. Feuerbach had knowledge of the equipment required to do this job.  He and his wife, Jamie, actually moved to Clear Lake in 2007 because of the number of hog buildings in the area.

Both Feuerbach and his wife are teachers and were able to find jobs in the Clear Lake school system.  In addition to being a biology teacher, Feuerbach is also a coach at CLHS.

“I’ve been teaching for 25 years.  Being a biology teacher, I have a lot of knowledge of disease and science, which has helped me in this business.  My business is scheduled around my teaching career,  which is my number one priority.  The two work together well, as I do must jobs primarily nights and weekends.”

Bio Security Services LLC employs five part-time employees.

Feuerbach said he is glad that they are able to help during this pandemic.

“Our process is the best way to eliminate the fear and provide decontamination so businesses can get back to normal and viruses can be eliminated.”
