The second week of April is a time to celebrate and thank telecommunications professionals who dedicate their lives to serving the public. The thin gold line in Orange County or the 911 dispatchers are true heroes behind the scenes.
"This week-long event, initially set up in 1981 by Patricia Anderson of the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office in California, is a time to celebrate and thank those who dedicate their lives to serving the public. It is a week that should be set aside so everyone can be made aware of their hard work and dedication." - Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO) International
Here, in Orange County, our Bio-One team would like to say "Thank You" to the 911 dispatchers that are critical to our community.
Between the thin blue line and the thin red line lies the thin gold line. It represents those who are unseen but always heard. To our telecommunications professionals of Orange County, you are the calm voice in the dark light. Thank you for all you do.
Again, thank you, thin gold line in Orange County!
All our best,
Cory, Naomi and the Tech Team of Bio-One of Orange

Purging is good for the soul. Getting rid of stuff during the annual spring cleaning ritual makes us feel lighter, freer. Here are eight things anyone over 50 likely has and can be rid of.
If you are over 50, then it's time to discard these items as if they only make your house cluttered and unpleasant to the eye.
There are three certainties in life: death, taxes, and that at some point you will clean out your parents’ home. Very often, their possessions become our possessions — and that’s not always such a good thing. It’s tough saying goodbye to the reminders from the past and of the people we love.
Nevertheless, taking photos and writing down your memories are much more efficient — and clutter free — ways to preserve them. Plus you are only deluding yourself if you think your daughter will want your mom’s old dresser in her first apartment. Call a charity thrift store and see if they’ll pick it up.
Tupperware lids have a way of disappearing much the same as socks put in the dryer. If it doesn’t have a lid, get rid of it. And how many plastic storage containers do you actually need anyway? Do you rinse and save the container every time you bring home wonton soup? Does a pile fall out when you open the cabinet door? It’s time to toss the ones you don’t use, the ones that partially melted in the microwave and the ones without lids.
Even if you live near the beach, nobody needs as many towels as you probably have. By the time you reach midlife, you’ve likely moved around a fair amount. And since a fair amount of redecorating occurs each time we move, chances are you have towels in multiple colors to match all those bathrooms in all those places you lived. Toss them. You will never run out of towels even if you skim off the bottom 20 percent of the pile.
Here’s a simple rule: If the expiration date has past, dump it. Old prescription drugs can actually be harmful to you. Many drugs lose their potency. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration requires that the active ingredient in a drug must be present in at least 90 percent of the amount indicated on the label.
Tablets and capsules have the longest shelf life and may even linger on pharmacy shelves for up to five years. Liquids and injectables, like insulin, lose their potency much faster. Hence, the danger out-of-date drugs pose. If your medications are critical to managing your disease, don’t mess around and just dispose of the old med.
Be careful how you do this. You don’t want an animal to get into your garbage.
Missing socks do not return from the dead. And there are few of life’s annoyances that can be resolved as cheaply and quickly as tossing out stretched out bras and panties and just buying new ones. A six-pack of socks will save you hours of looking for a matching pair. And dumping the mismatched sock drawer into the garbage is pure awesomeness. No, you really won’t need them for sock puppets.
There is something remarkable about having a home library. But the truth is, most avid readers just have book cases that are overflowing. If you are stacking books sideways on top of others, it’s time to figure out which ones you expect to re-read.
We know: Books are like friends and when we make new ones, we don’t just discard the old ones. Consider re-homing them: The library may take them off your hands and if not, they are a thrift store favorite. Also, ever heard of Kindle?
Here’s a hard truth: Apply the “I have three minutes to evacuate, what am I taking with me?” rule. We can pretty much guarantee that the box in the basement with your grandma’s chipped china won’t be rushed out to the car. In fact, when did you even last look at it, let alone use it. Decluttering your life of unused possessions feels better than hanging on to stuff that you have a remote emotional attachment to.
Yes, your kids have grown up. Check eBay and you’ll see what your kids’ old toys are really worth now.
Sometimes someone we know and love needs more help than we can offer them or they can offer themselves. Some hoarding situations accumulate dangerous bacteria and pathogens that can cause serious illness if not remediated properly. Contact Bio-One of Orange at 714-397-8375 to see how we can get you or someone you love get your home back. Visit our website for more spring cleaning tips.

Exposure to cat urine and feces are some of the most dangerous bio-hazard situations that a homeowner can face. Thus, urine cleanup becomes as essential and as complicated as cleaning blood. A broad range of health hazards occur when homeowners ignore pet urine and feces cleanup. The general health of the inhabitants of a home may worsen causing infections, illnesses, and mortality in serious instances.
Cat urine and feces are definitely dangerous for you. Cat feces can trigger a severe human disease called toxoplasmosis. In the first several weeks, exposure to the parasite referred as Toxoplasma Gondii can trigger flu-like signs. Once the parasite grows, a range of other neurological diseases, damaging consequences such as brain inflammation, and effects on the heart, liver, eyes and ears may also occur.
Another disease that you can suffer from after exposure to cat urine or feces is called Cryptosporidiosis. This causes diarrhea, vomiting, fever, and a host of other problems. Like toxoplasmosis, cryptosporidiosis can influence both cats and humans. Cryptosporidiosis, like most zoonotic diseases, has the greatest effect on those with poor immune health.
Urine of all species includes unhealthy quantities of ammonia. While ammonia is discovered in different cleaning agents and industrial products, the emission is generally of a regulated type. For several days, litter boxes that are open and soiled with cat urine may generate a mild health concern. Exposure to large quantities of extremely focused quantities of ammonia in urine, particularly in cat urine, may trigger respiratory diseases as well as inflammation of the skin and eyes.
As the urine evaporates in its gaseous state, water is dispelled. As a result, the air can be contaminated by toxic fumes which can cause a number of problems to one’s airways.
Of course, if you already have pre-existing respiratory issues or a weakened immune system, you are more likely to develop health issues caused by cat feces and urine.
If you are not cleaning up after your pet daily, or even weekly, animal waste can easily be accumulated. This is extremely hazardous and should be dealt with immediately especially if you have more cats than you can count. You should contact a service to help with this type of cleanup as it is not safe to do on your own. Bio-One of Orange and Orange Hoarding can help you or your loved one with their bio-hazardous cleaning.

Renters do not always treat the home they reside in as if it were their own- this is no secret. Sometimes more issues come up than expected once a renter moves out and the owner assesses the residence for potential repairments. Many tenants still ignore the rule amidst cigarette prohibition rule from the lease states. We can help with tobacco odor removal!
Pets can damage a home by defecating and urinating on the flooring and or walls, which leaves an awful smell and a bio-hazard that is not easy to remove. We can help with the remediation of feces, urine, and odour from those situations!
Hoarding and neglect of throwing away food and soiled items cause mould and a bad distinguished odour. We can help with hoarding removal, mould remediation, and the awful smell!
