Respiratory syncytial (sin-SISH-uhl) virus is a common, contagious virus that causes infections of the respiratory tract. RSV infections can be very serious, especially for infants and older adults.
RSV spreads through the sneeze or cough of an infected person which makes it an airborne pathogen. Since wiping down surfaces does nothing for contaminated air, what do you do?
If you can’t afford fancy, expensive air purifiers with industrial UV lights or other contraptions, you may want to look into our nontoxic disinfectant fogging service.
Not only is disinfectant fogging a great way to combat airborne pathogens like coronavirus, but our disinfectant fogging, in particular, also kills RSV! With dwell times less than 60-seconds, we make quick work of disinfecting nearly every inch of your environment, INCLUDING the air. You can read about how fogging works here.
We have been fogging gyms, offices, schools, retail stores, residential homes and more for over 12 years and are experts in the field. Get an online quote today!

A new study shows that we create our own oxidation fields through the oils and fats on our skin, which has implications for indoor air quality and human health.
One of those implications, as atmospheric chemist Jonathan Williams points out, is that “We need to rethink indoor chemistry in occupied spaces because the oxidation field we create will transform many of the chemicals in our immediate vicinity.”
I interpret his words to mean that the chemicals we currently use are more detrimental than we first thought. The fact they interact with our own oxidation field and can become more volatile and harmful is absolutely alarming.
For instance, hydrogen peroxide should not be used where chemicals like bleach or ammonia are used because their interactions can cause deadly gases and other compounds. Is something similar happening immediately on and arround your body and affecting you in harmful ways?
All of this is just another reminder to go nontoxic. If you haven’t tried the nontoxic cleaning solutions or services on the market today you may want to start before you do yourself more harm than good.
The research has been published in Science.
If you’ve read what to look for and when to hire a disinfectant fogging service, then you already know you can benefit from disinfectant fogging. But besides you who else might be able to benefit?
If you suffer from allergies, you should become best friends with your local disinfectant fogging service. Our fogging actually combats and remvoes 99% of airborne allergens like pollen, dust mites, dander, and even neutralize peanut allergens.
Your guests expect the property they rent to be at least clean and odor free. If there was an unexpected smoker in the home or pet odor is out of control, disinfectant fogging can be a great solution to quickly ready the home for the next guest.
If you work in an office that typically means you are in close quarters with other people. Oftentimes, your colleagues come to work sick, placing everyone in the office at risk. If you notice bouts with the same bug going around your office, disinfectant fogging can help reduce the spread of those germs so you can get back to productivity.
Much the same as offices, germs can spread quickly inside the home. Sometimes, illnesses can linger. That usually means a sharing of the same germs over and over again with a couple mutations of the germs in there so they stick around. Enter disinfectant fogging to interrupt their infection party.
It’s common knowledge for schools to be a hotbed of germs. Send your child to school and they are almost guaranteed to come back sick. Imagine all the shared toys, uncovered sneezes, and harsh coughs that take place throughout the day. Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a way to sanitize all those surfaces and the air in an efficient way? Disinfectant fogging to the rescue!
This list could go on forever…The main takeaway here is that disinfectant fogging can be deployed in so many scenarios and benefit all people.

We define disinfectant fogging as the process of using a machine to dispense an EPA-registered disinfectant in the form of a super-fine mist. This mist coats surfaces and disinfects them on contact while also providing benefits for the air you breathe.
As a savvy consumer you know not all services are created equal. Thus, there are several important things to consider when hiring a professional disinfectant fogging service. We highlight them below.
Read: When To Hire A Disinfectant Fogging Service
A reputable disinfectant fogging service will take steps to mitigate any damage from their process, but if something goes wrong, how can the company fix it? This is where insurance comes in.
Fogging devices create a powerful air flow that can knock over and break valuable items. Plus, depending on what they use to fog with, valuable items may become discolored and ruined from the process. A reputable service company will have general liability insurance to replace items or inventory that may become damaged.
While experience isn’t a determining factor of performance, it can be a telltale sign of knowledge, experience and wisdom. Some companies started when the pandemic hit and folded just months after, while others–like Germz Be Gone–have been providing fogging services since 2011.
Most disinfectants are not meant to be used in a fogging application. Common disinfectants, like hydrogen peroxide, while used by some fogging services, have not been approved for use in a fogger by the EPA. Services caught using disinfectants (and any other chemical) not in accord with their approved use can face stiff fines and penalties–so too can the companies who hire them.
Besides, would you trust a company who doesn’t even read the labels of the solutions they are using?
Don’t be fooled into thinking all fogging services are the same. They are not! For instance, some disinfectant fogging services only fog. Others may wipe down light switches, door knobs and other frequently-touched items.
You may not feel like you’ve received the value you’re looking for if the service you choose is one of those “fog only” outfits. You want to choose a company who understands infection risk and disease transmission. A company who goes above and beyond to ensure the job is done right–the first time.
Always ask what their process includes.
