FAQs
How do I verify FortiGuard is working?
The Sterilex Test Strip Kit can be used to quickly test and verify proper levels of active ingredients are still available for pathogen control. The kit is a useful tool for internal compliance teams and veterinarians.
How often should I replace FortiGuard?
With proper management active ingredients can remain stable for up to 8 weeks. Replenish as product is tracked out of the foot pan to ensure complete coverage. Replace product only if foot pan becomes flooded. We recommend maintaining at least ½ inch of powder in a foot pan.
What does it mean to be an EPA-Registered product?
Products must be EPA registered if they claim or imply efficacy against pathogens. EPA-registered products are proven to kill bacteria and inactivate viruses listed on the label and can be trusted to perform if used according to the label.
How often should I apply Sterilex Ultra Step?
Most facilities re-apply daily but depending on the amount of foot traffic through an area this amount can vary. Some facilities may need to reapply Sterilex Ultra Step up to once per shift to ensure all footwear is properly covered.

Does this product require water to activate
This dry sanitizer requires moisture to become active, but this does not have to come from added water. Generally, if there is enough active moisture in an environment to have microbial concerns, there is enough moisture to activate the product to kill those organisms.
