Do I need to worry about your products becoming unusable if they get frozen over the winter?
Can these be stored in the garage over the winter season, or do I need to bring them inside? The MICROBE-LIFT products, such as the liquid bacteria, will remain viable once they thaw, if frozen. However, they will lose some viability, about 10%, with each freeze/thaw cycle, so it is better if they do not freeze at all. The bigger problem is excessive heat in storing live bacterial products. You should be able to store the products in the garage for the winter. The ideal storage temperatures are between 40-105ºF. |

What is the shelf life for the liquid bacterial products?
Approximately 2 years in unopened container, 1 year after being opened if stored properly. |

What is the shelf life of the dry products?
All of the dry biological products , and the dry bio-products with added enzyme and other support material have an extended shelf life well beyond the two year stated claim. The dry formulations consist of multiple strains of spore forming microorganisms and these microorganisms can stay in the spore form (dormant state) for an indefinite period of time when properly stored. The method of microbial activation is two fold: a) the addition of water; b) the presence of waste organic matter. Both of these factors are required to active the microbes and get their biological oxidation process going. |
