J Ferg Pros Launches a Germinator Mobile Sanitizing and Disinfecting Franchise in Lubbock County

June 19, 2020

Lubbock, Texas – (06/19/2020 12:00 PM EST) – J Ferg Pros, a leader in building solutions for residential and commercial applications, is proud to announce it has opened a Germinator Mobile Sanitizing and Disinfecting franchise in Lubbock County. J R Ferguson, CEO of J Ferg Pros, will spearhead operations, which will offer door-to-door sanitizing and disinfecting services for commercial and residential properties. J Ferg Pros is simultaneously opening a Germinator franchise in Amarillo, Texas.

"Increased sanitizing and disinfecting have become top-of-mind as we navigate our new normal amidst the pandemic," said Ferguson. "People are our priority, and embarking on this franchise opportunity with Germinator will allow us to create clean and hygienic environments for residents and business owners. Our goal is to bring peace of mind to the community and restore confidence in business owners, employees and families."

Germinator has developed a patent-pending process that provides a new generation of microbial protection for residential and commercial establishments.

"We are looking forward to working with J Ferg Pros to deliver the highest level of sanitizing and disinfecting services to residents and business owners in Texas," said Jeff Gill, CEO of Germinator. "Germinator offers an important service that can help create more hygienic environments, which is of vital importance as we navigate the pandemic."


Germinator's patent-pending methodology is the most unique and cost-effective means of providing enhanced antimicrobial protection for businesses and residences. The company first tests surfaces for ATP using a luminometer to detect light that can come from cellular activity. This measurement immediately provides the level of clean on a surface.

The next step is the application of Germinator's Genesis surface treatment. Genesis is a one-step cleaner and broad-spectrum sanitizer and disinfectant treatment that harnesses the power of hypochlorous acid (HOCl). Derived from naturally occurring minerals, Genesis not only eliminates odors at their source but kills a wide range of bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA, Salmonella enterica and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and viruses including norovirus, rotavirus and adenovirus on hard, non-porous, environmental surfaces. It meets the Association of Official Agricultural Chemists (AOAC) germicidal spray standards for Hospital Grade Disinfection and is on the EPA's N List of products determined to meet the criteria for use against SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. As a result, this treatment will eliminate bacteria and viruses that may reside in your environment without the use of harsh chemicals or fumes.

Following Genesis, Germinator applies its Shield, a water-based quaternary ammonium compound that imparts a durable bacteriostatic finish. It is EPA-registered as effective against mold, mildew, algae and odor-causing bacteria. This application creates an invisible barrier that helps combat deterioration and discoloration and promotes freshness for up to three months.

The Genesis and Shield products are applied by using an electrostatic sprayer, which is the most efficient and effective means of delivering the products to the intended application sites. After Germinator's surface treatment and protectant services, the company retests ATP levels to help ensure the surfaces have achieved the intended results.

The company upholds the highest standards of sanitizing and disinfecting and makes claims that are scientifically supported and within EPA regulations. To support its research and further validate its practice of sanitizing and disinfecting surfaces, Germinator has created the Germinator Scientific Advisory Board.

Senior Scientific Advisory Board member, Dr. David Miller, supports Germinator's process by saying, "The Germinator Genesis platform and the Shield microbial barrier application are at the forefront for facilities' remediation efforts. This allows patients, providers, consumers and commuters to have a high degree of confidence in the facility, which is an absolute necessity during the current COVID-19 pandemic."

Germinator was founded by Jeff Gill in 2015, with the vision of providing a proper sanitizing and disinfecting method for businesses and households. Since February alone, the company has expanded to include 15 franchise locations across the country, with new locations in the pipeline.
