News Around Town: Matthews seniors (ages 60 and above) are entitled to one free COVID-19 Home Disinfecting Service, sponsored by Mecklenburg County Department of Social Services and Bio-One. 

Bio-One will complete a one-time COVID-19 disinfecting service, applying a Centers for Disease Control/EPA approved chemical to surfaces within the home including doorknobs, handles and light switches. The chemical is safe for children and pets, but residents are asked to leave their homes for a three hour window. With many variables in home settings, this disinfecting service can not guarantee coronavirus eradication but may help reduce the spread.

For an appointment (required), call 980-314-6800, or email SFA-Events@MecklenburgCountyNC.gov.
