The present invention discloses a composition and method of providing ionic forms or compounds of any combination of three metals to produce a product that can be used as a antimicrobial as defined by the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) such as a hard surface disinfectant and as a foliar spray or water treatment for the control of various diseases in garden row, field and tree crops, on hard surface areas such as equipment from infected fields or in hospitals, homes, etc. as well as against a wide range of human, plant and animal diseases. Additionally, the composition of the present invention is able to be used to coat and otherwise treat and disinfect food products such as but not limited to fish and shellfish, meat, milk, poultry, eggs and irrigated crops (both food and nonfood crops) as well as non food products as defined in the EPA exemption from tolerance for copper and copper products. The composition may include inerts such as surfactants, detergents and buffers to adjust the pH. The composition remains soluble in water and is useful efficacious against the spread of bacteria, viruses and fungi and other pathogens within a source of water such as a reservoir or pool. Alternatively, the composition may be in aerosolized, misted, vaporized, fogged, humidified forms to produce micronized particles which are able to remain in suspension in the air for long periods of time in order to act on air-borne fungal spores and/or pathogens.

What is claimed is new and desired to be protected by Letters Patent is set forth in the appended claims: 1. A method of producing an antibacterial composition for eradicating and/or controlling pathogens comprising the steps of: adding the ingredients of water; a compound having the chemical formula H2SO4+(NH3)2SO 4; and at least one of copper, silver and gold into a mixture; agitating said mixture until the ingredients are blended together; diluting said mixture to an effective antibacterial composition; and treating food products with the composition by at least one of coating, washing, spraying, rinsing, dipping, soaking and combining with the food products. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising the step of adding inert ingredients for adjusting a pH of said composition. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the step of adding inert ingredients includes adding at least one of surfactants, detergents and buffers. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one of copper, silver and gold is provided in a copper: silver/gold ratio of between 1:1 and 32:1. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one of copper, silver and gold is able to remain in suspended in the water. 6. The method of claim 1, further comprising the step of forming the composition in one of an aerosolized, misted, vaporized, fogged, humidified forms to produce micronized particles which are able to remain in suspension in the air for long periods of time in order to act on and eradicate or disinfect air-borne fungal spores and/or other pathogens. 7. The method of claim 1, further comprising the step of forming the composition in one of a liquid, soap, salve or other form able to be applied to a surface affected by a pathogen. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein said step of treating food products includes treating at least one of fish, shellfish, meat, milk, poultry, eggs and irrigated crops in the composition and eliminating any bacteria on or within the food product in order to minimize pathogens resulting from ingestion of the food product and increase the shelf life of the food product. 9. The method of claim 1, further comprising the step of adding the composition to a supply of liquid thereby eradicating or disinfecting pathogens from within the liquid. 10. A method of producing an antibacterial composition for eradicating and/or controlling pathogens comprising the steps of: adding the ingredients of water; a compound having the chemical formula H2SO4+(NH3)2SO 4; and at least one of silver and gold into a mixture; agitating said mixture until the ingredients are blended together; and diluting said mixture to an effective antibacterial composition.
