Posted By Bennie Hi - I would have thought that once the drains had taken the water away there would only be a very low residual risk of infection. If your people are on their hands and knees in the car park then the risk would be higher. Usually, the current rain fall we are getting will be enough to clense the area. Stagnant water is definately a problem at any time, but unless you are in food industry I suggest you take it one day at a time - get staff to wipe their feet entering the premises and get the mats cleaned regularly.
