    Banish the Funk from Your Football Pads

    It’s a well-known, albeit rarely spoken, truth among football players: football pads can develop a serious funk. This odor can be so overpowering that your pads might end up banished to the trunk of your car, never allowed indoors. But worry not, the days of smelly gear and embarrassment are behind you. Here’s how to keep your football pads fresh and germ-free, ensuring they don’t become a breeding ground for bacteria that could sideline you.

    Let Them Breathe

    Germs thrive in dark, moist environments. Storing your gear in a closed duffel bag creates the perfect breeding ground for bacteria like staph and E. coli. This not only leads to bad odors but also increases the risk of infections. Remember, a bad smell is often a sign of germ overload.

    Post-game or practice, it’s crucial to air out your gear. In dry climates like Las Vegas, simply placing your pads and helmet outside for a couple of hours (direct sunlight and heat aren’t necessary) can do the trick. The aim is to dry out the sweat, depriving germs of the moisture they need to survive.

    Natural Sanitizing Sprays

    Once you’ve dried your gear, it’s time to sanitize. While there are many chemical sanitizers available, they often fall short for several reasons: they’re more expensive, less effective in penetrating fabrics, contribute to the development of superbugs like MRSA, and can be harmful to your health.

    DIY Alternatives

    Creating your own natural sanitizing spray is easy and effective. You’ll need a spray bottle and one of the following mixtures:

    • Vinegar Solution: Mix 1 part vinegar with 3 parts water. The vinegar odor dissipates quickly.
    • Essential Oils: Add 1-2 drops per ounce of water for a pleasant scent.
    • Probiotics: Combine 0.5 ounces with 32 ounces of water. Probiotics remain active for days, continuing to protect your gear.

    These natural alternatives not only combat germs but also help reduce odors more effectively than chemical sanitizers.

    Professional Deep Cleaning

    At least once a month during the season, consider getting your gear professionally deep cleaned. Opt for services that use natural cleaning methods to avoid any harmful side effects. In Las Vegas and the San Francisco Bay Area, Germz Be Gone offers steam and probiotic cleaning for sports gear, providing a thorough and safe cleaning process. They even offer the convenience of mobile service and team discounts.

    A Routine for Healthier, Odor-Free Gear

    Implement these techniques after every use of your pads:

    • Air Out: Always let your gear dry out after use.
    • Spray Down: Use your homemade spray for added protection.
    • Professional Cleaning: Get a deep clean monthly during the season with Germz Be Gone.

    Imagine a locker room where everyone maintains their gear in this manner. The air would be fresher, the risk of infection lower, and the team healthier, especially during flu season. This could lead to a more successful and enjoyable season.

    Charge forward to victory, with fresh, clean, and healthy gear!

    San Diego Hepatitis Outbreak Needs A Different Solution: Here’s Mine

    How To Solve The San Diego Street Hygiene, Hepatitis Problem

    Since I previously highlighted what’s wrong in San Diego’s hepatitis remedy, I’ll get right to it.

    Step One: Stop spraying bleach everywhere.

    Bleach is toxic and creates too many unwanted issues down the road like:

    • Negative Health Issues – bleach causes cognitive, respiratory and nervous system issues. This is no secrete.
    • Immediate Sanitizing Only – Once bleach evaporates, its sanitizing properties go with it. Recontamination is possible just moments after application of the bleach.
    • Bleach kills everything – Bleach kills the good microbes too. Infection risk rises when an imbalance exists favoring the pathogens. If there are no good microbes left to fight off the pathogens, other serious illnesses can spread.
    • Where Does It Go? – So the city is spraying bleach everywhere. Are they collecting the contaminated water so it won’t go into the storm drain and contaminate the environment?
    • Creating Superbugs – Applying bleach to every surface is only creating the right environment for the creation of other superbugs. See “MRSA”

    Step Two: Buck traditional thinking, apply some “new” science.

    A quick Google search will yield countless alternatives to bleach to kill viruses and other pathogens. Vinegar, for example, can be an effective sanitizer. However, I propose something completely revolutionary: heat and then probiotics.

    Yeah, I said it! PROBIOTICS.

    High-temperature hot water or steam pressure washers are availableir?t=gebego09 20&l=am2&o=1&a=B000FG4GSQ. There would be no need for any chemicals other than what already exists in the city’s tap water, as the heat would destroy whatever is in its path. No chemicals, means a safer remedy and no negative side effects in the short or long term.

    Probiotics For Days

    After applying the steam, come back through with an application of probiotics using an ultra-low volume foggerir?t=gebego09 20&l=am2&o=1&a=B003YKJGZI. This will create a layer of beneficial microflora which will last and protect for several days rather than minutes.

    Some may think a remedy of heat and probiotics is crazy and it won’t work. But tell me, is spraying bleach all over guaranteed to work? Time to try something different.
