Bleach: Boiling Bacteria and Whiting Out Stains

Clean houses don’t just impress guests—they also wage war on stains and germs. Meet one of a clean house’s main warriors with Groupon’s overview of bleach.

A bleach is any substance that fades the color from something, but when we talk about bleach, we’re usually talking about one of two substances: oxygen bleach, based on hydrogen peroxide, or chlorine bleach, based on sodium hypochlorite. The latter starts with simple saltwater, whose sodium and chloride atoms are forcibly separated by a strong electric current before being reintroduced to create a reaction that sticks an oxygen atom from the water into each disgusting new sodium and chloride sandwich. Oxygen bleach is more difficult to make and more expensive, but it is far gentler—enough so that dentists use it as a teeth whitener. When laundry bleach is advertised as safe for colors, it is most likely an oxygen bleach.

The stain-fighting power of both kinds of bleach stems from their ability to break down the parts of molecules that reflect color, or chromophores, by yanking away their electrons. Bacteria has just as much to fear: just as they would under high heat, the intricately folded protein molecules that make up a bacterium begin to unravel and then permanently clump, much like an egg solidifying as it boils.

Although people have been harnessing the disinfecting properties of bleach since the first half of the 19th century, nobody fully understood how bleach disabled germs until 2008, when a team of researchers led by Dr. Ursula Jakob documented the process. In an interview with NPR, Dr. Jakob explained that by inventing chemical bleach, humans were actually recreating a germ-fighting chemical that evolved inside their bodies over thousands of years. Hypochlorite, the active ingredient in chlorine bleach, is produced by the human immune system to break down the proteins of invading germs, just as it does on a dirty kitchen counter or anything touched by a baby.

I thought for a 900 sq ft place I could purchase 2 hours and it would get me at least 4 rooms. I was surprised she only did / bathrooms in that time. I feel like I maintain the house pretty well. She did do the tubs/showers great, but didn't touch the baseboards. My apartment is small, I expected more to get done.

Hello Amy, we typically spend 45-1 hour in a bathroom and baseboards aren't included in our basic cleaning (all hourly cleanings are approached as a basic cleaning unless customer request otherwise.) Having the tub and shower separate, glass door(s), very dirty can all add up to the tech taking a longer time. We generally stress that we do take longer than your typical house cleaner because we put high amounts of detail into our cleanings. very often the detail goes unnoticed because the normal eye doesn't see those things. We offer non hourly cleanings to avoid any issues with time and we are constantly working to keep the highest amount of detail done in the shortest amount of time. Thank you again for choosing MPC!

They were a no show. I know mistakes happen so I called. Three calls and three voice messages have yielded no response. Very disappointed.

The only reason I gave 1 star is so I could write a review. I bought a 3 hr cleaning service and it was the worst job ever! The only thing that was done was the two bathroom sinks were wiped down and the two small rooms vacuumed. There was nothing dusted, the kitchen wasn't even touched at all. What Harold did in 3 hrs. I could've done in less than 30 minutes. I called Mathis and emailed them numerous pictures of the poor job and they did nothing to rectify the situation. They said I shouldn't go through Groupon in the future, to book direct to avoid problems. The only problem is I paid for nothing. I wouldn't refer this company to anyone.

Hello Joy, again we apologize for this experience. At times, It is difficult to meet customers requests with our Groupon promotion. We will not rush through a cleaning without making sure areas we service have exceeded our expectations. Although it is difficult, we have exceeded many expectations. We strive to bring the best customer service and cleaning our industry has to offer. As mentioned in the initial conversation we often take longer than your average cleaning company. With having to move around many things in your bathroom and it's condition it took Harold longer than 3 hours to tackle the areas you wanted done. We hope to have a better understanding of this in our future bookings and hope your next cleaner is better fit for you. Thank you.!
