Moistening fluids are disclosed that are capable of being used in mail processing machines and systems. Mail processing equipment can automatically feed and moisten envelopes at slow to very high speeds of 30 inches per second. The moistening system becomes contaminated with paper dust, talc, and common envelope adhesives. The moistening fluids kill many types of bacteria, fungi, and inhibit the growth of other types of bacteria, fungi, and algae. The moistening fluids of this invention are safe for use in an office environment, i.e., they are non-toxic, not tacky, have a pleasant odor, are non-flammable, have no residue build up and may be transported by common carriers without any safety precautions. The moistening fluid contains: detergent, biocide, alcohol, dye, de-ionized water and a fragrance.
