With hurricane season beginning in early summer and lasting
through late fall, the threat of hurricanes is ongoing in the
southern U.S. and impacts residents both inside and outside the
home. From muggy weather conditions that can lead to a surge in
bugs, to a variety of insects entering the home seeking refuge from
the storm's damage, insect control is essential yet oftentimes
overlooked in post-hurricane relief efforts.
Zevo aims to help Florida families stay protected from various
insects. The brand has designated a portion of their $8 million
donation of Instant Action Insect Killer, Ant, Roach & Spider
and Instant Action Insect Killer, Ant, Roach & Fly to Matthew
25’s Hurricane Idalia disaster response. Both products will help
residents and their families stay protected from the potential
increase in both flying and crawling insects that hurricanes like
Idalia can bring about.
“Post-hurricane relief and recovery efforts can be daunting to
address for many people,” said Tim Mettey, Chief Executive Officer,
Matthew 25: Ministries. “We’re incredibly grateful for Zevo’s
donation that will give Florida residents one less thing to worry
about so they are able to focus on rebuilding their lives without
the concern of irritating insects.”
Zevo Kill Sprays offer effective protection against crawling and
flying insects like spiders, roaches, ants, and flies. Zevo sprays
are powered by essential oils to kill insects by targeting nervous
system receptors vital to insects, not people or pets. Just spray
to kill and wipe up what’s left behind with a clean cloth or paper
towel.
"At Zevo, we know bugs can be an unnecessary stressor in every
day life for many people, especially during an aftermath of a
hurricane when wet weather conditions can cause insects to become
more prevalent," said Chetan Parekh, Vice President & General
Manager of Zevo at Procter & Gamble. "We wanted to offer our
support to the families in Florida affected by Hurricane Idalia and
provide them with Zevo’s dependable insect control solutions, so
they don’t have to worry about the bugs during this critical
time."
This year’s donation to M25 is a part of an ongoing partnership
with the disaster relief organization. Since 2022, Zevo has
supported communities affected by natural disasters during times of
need.
