Today, we welcomed a new client. We always appreciate the opportunity to serve others. Our initial question to new clients is, "Why do you think you need a home watch? Tell us a little about your story. How can we serve you better?"
Our newest client shared a troubling experience. They had trusted a local girl who offered to check in on their home while they were away. Although she diligently checked in as promised, one day she noticed a strange smell in the garage but couldn’t identify the source. It turned out that a freezer full of meat had malfunctioned. She informed the homeowners, but they were thousands of miles away and unsure of what the smell could be. The incident resulted in thousands of dollars in damages, leading them to seek a professional home watch service.
At Guardian Angel Home Watch of SWFL, we were honored to receive their business. This story underscores the importance of having a properly trained, accredited, bonded, and insured home watch service. Always secure the right professionals for the job!
When a freezer full of meat goes out in a garage in the state of Florida, several things can happen:
1. Rapid Spoilage: Due to Florida's warm and humid climate, meat can spoil quickly if not kept at a proper temperature. Without power, the freezer cannot maintain the necessary low temperatures, causing the meat to thaw and spoil.
2. Unpleasant Odor: As the meat spoils, it produces a strong and unpleasant odor. This smell can permeate the garage and surrounding areas, making it very difficult to remove.
3. Attracting Pests: Spoiled meat can attract pests such as flies, ants, and rodents, which can create further problems.
4. Health Hazards: Spoiled meat can become a breeding ground for harmful bacteria and pathogens, posing health risks to anyone who comes into contact with it.
5. Cleanup Costs: Cleaning up a freezer full of spoiled meat can be costly. The freezer itself may need to be thoroughly cleaned or replaced, and the surrounding area may require professional cleaning to remove the odor and any potential contamination.
6. Potential Damage: The leaking juices from the spoiled meat can damage the interior of the freezer and the garage floor, leading to additional repair costs.
In summary, a freezer full of meat going out in Florida's climate can lead to rapid spoilage, strong odors, pest infestations, health hazards, and significant cleanup and repair expenses.
