What is Catalina BioSolutions' success rate?

After 15 years in the bioremediation business, our customer satisfaction rate remains 100 percent. Most sites treated with BioCritters reach full closure on the first attempt, but Catalina BioSolutions will provide unlimited technical support throughout the project to ensure complete site closure.

Are Catalina BioSolutions' BioCritters and supplementary products dangerous in any way?

No. All of our products are environmentally safe and can be handled without concern. BioCritters are Safety Level I and are non-pathogenic and non-opportunistic. You can access the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for all of Catalina BioSolutions' products from this website.

Does Catalina BioSolutions use any artificial or genetically modified organisms?

No. BioCritters comprises a consortium of naturally-occurring microbes found in soil and water throughout the world. All the microbes in BioCritters are found in the Berges Manual.

What is left when the BioCritters are finished degrading the contaminant?

The by-products of the bioremediation process are carbon dioxide, water and trace elements of fatty acids.

Once all the contaminant is cleaned, is there any way the BioCritters could seek an alternate food source and degrade more than they were intended to?

No. BioCritters are formulated to degrade specific contaminants and nothing else. The amount of BioCritters used is based on the estimation of the quantity of contaminant. Once the contaminant is cleaned, the BioCritters' food source is gone and they become inert. If there were another spill, the inert BioCritters would automatically revive.

Does temperature affect the BioCritters bioremediation process?

Warm weather will not affect the efficacy of BioCritters. Freezing temperatures rupture the cell walls of the microbes, although even freezing temperatures do not necessarily preclude a winter BioTreatment. Catalina BioSolutions has applied BioCritters in blizzards with excellent results by inoculating below the frost line where bioremediation can still occur.
