Keeping your home clean and disinfected will prevent the
spread of coronavirus, and any other virus for that
matter. If no one in your household is showing symptoms
or has been diagnosed, then the chances of the virus
living on a surface in your home are less likely. But
that doesn't mean the risk is non-existent, especially
if any member of the household needs to leave the house.
The most important surfaces to clean regularly are the
ones you touch most often, Fozzard explains. This will
reduce the likelihood of the virus transferring from a
surface to your hands.
No, you cannot see them with the naked eye. A matchstick head could hold over 10000 mites. If you are able see them without any magnification they could be some other mites or germs.
We uphold high standard of quality and service delivery standards. Our entire process is Non – toxic.
Global standard is to sanitize a home and house hold once every quarter. We recommend treating it at least twice a year. In case of severe allergies we recommend it quarterly.
No, it is an on-site job and sanitization is done inside your home itself.
Virus Busterz does not use anything, which can harm kids, adult or even pets. In fact, we sanitize various kids stuff viz. stuffed toys, blankets, cots etc. for many of our customers.
Firstly, many vacuum cleaners do not filter fine dust effectively. Some adequately pull small particles out of your House. However, their filter systems are so porous that microscopic particles pass through the cleaner and are expelled back into the air you breathe! These vacuum cleaners are not equipped to trap microorganisms like dust mites or even their waste. Disposable bags used by Virus Busterz are made up of a material, which can trap bacteria up to the size of 0.1 micron. Size of dust mites waste varies from 10 to 20 micron. To put that in perspective, diameter of human hair varies from 40 to 120 microns! Secondly, the machine used by Germ Busters has a brush built- in, which helps in agitating the surface and releasing the mites and their waste from the fabric. Finally and most importantly, Germ Busters uses a proprietary powerful germicidal UV lamp to kill bacteria, fungus, molds etc. found commonly in Dust.
No, It is completely non-toxic, which is not harmful for human being or pets.
Any household, which is more than 4-6 months old will have a similar number of dust mites and other allergens. Hence they should be sanitized regularly.
Our sun provides a wide spectrum of light energy – from the invisible ultraviolet to normal visible light and up through the visible infrared. We are most familiar with the invisible UVA and UVB light waves that are harmful to our skin. However, it is the short UVC wavelength that contains the right level of energy for destroying bacteria, viruses, yeasts, and molds. Medical studies using ultra-violet disinfections have proven effective in reducing the spread of tuberculosis, measles, influenza, smallpox, and controlling infection in operating rooms. The Germ Busters UVC light system uses large high intensity bulbs to destroy dust mites and countless harmful microorganisms quickly and efficiently.
Dust mites are microscopic, when we move on the mattress it acts like a bellows and puffs up particles containing Guanine found in dust mite excrement, which easily pass through protectors and bedding to land on our face and skin. This is a major trigger for a host of allergic reactions including Asthma, Eczema and reactions such as poor sleep, runny nose, sneezing, headaches, sinus, itchy eyes and much more. Constant exposure can cause a lifelong allergy.
A mattress 6 months old will benefit from our cleaning process, in fact we can perform a simple test for you with a black cloth displaying what we actually take out of the household – it will shock you!
There are studies that indicate they are not effective. Our experience is when we have tested a mattress with a protective cover there is contamination. Nevertheless, should you have or intend to purchase a mattress protector that suggests it will deter dust mites make sure you have your mattress sanitized beforehand. Most minute holes in covers will stretch when washed. Even new, they will not protect against the movement of dust mite excrement, which is what we are allergic to and can create an allergy.
Our process won’t provide a cure but what it can do is to help reduce the severity and frequency. However, we have found in many cases that household sanitizing has eliminated dust mite causing allergen and in the case of asthmatics (80% suffer from exposure to dust mites) there is a very likely chance of significant relief.
Yes. We treat pillows, rugs and sofas too.
Generally 3 to 6 months, however, other factors need to be considered like the state of your health, whether you have known allergies to the dust mite and require more frequent servicing e.g. Asthma or Eczema. Also, if your symptoms begin to return, that will determine when we are required. Certainly, asthmatics should allow no more than 3 months. Remember that our process is preventative as well and especially important for children.
It naturally depends on the size of the mattress; allow 15 to 30 minutes for each mattress. After we have completed cleaning the mattress we apply a non-toxic natural spray that deodorizes as well as sanitizes. You can make the bed after a few minutes.
Generally we can significantly reduce if not eliminate the stain area and completely remove any odour (and bacteria) associated with the stain. The result can be dependent on the mattress material, age of the stain and various other factors.
The high temperatures of the steam kills the virus/bacteria that are causing the odors, be it from urine, mold or just a general mustiness. Germ Busters has had great results with eliminating these odors and leaving the bed smelling fresh again.
Most cleaning products (even home made eco products) leave behind a residue. That residue actually attracts more dirt meaning the surface gets dirty faster than before you cleaned it. Try putting soap on one of your fingers, and instead of rinsing that soap off, let it dry. That finger will feel sticky and you will likely find that in a short period of time, that finger is dirtier than the others. This is what happens when cleaning residues are not rinsed thoroughly. This is a very common problem especially in soft furnishings and carpets.
Virus Busterz treatment specialists are experienced and trust worthy people. So long as you have arranged access to the beds, and clear identification of what you would like them to do, you are welcome to leave them to it. The treatment specialist will leave you a report to show the effectiveness of their work.
To clean the average family’s beds can take up to 3 hours. The process is done in your house and the duration of the process depends on the sofa or mattresses size / age. It will take approximately 20-30 minutes to complete a double mattress.
The steam is super-hot & dry. The bed is usually dry within 5 – 10 minutes and ready to be made after the service.
While the process is specifically designed for sanitization, some marks may be removed in the process. Germ Busters understands we are entering your personal space and carries out its service in a respectful manner. If your mattress is marked, don’t worry, it’s part of life and most mattresses are. Sometimes the dry steam removes the marks, but it always sanitizes them.
Virus Busterz uses the principles of physics as opposed to creating a chemical reaction to kill bacteria. Instant high temperatures created by the Super-hot dry steam kill all germs. No living organisms can survive at the temperatures where steam is created.
Virus Busterz can take the same technologies used in sterilizing your bed to deep clean and sanitize the rest of your home. If you suffer from dust allergies, it is recommended that you have your carpets, couches, and curtains sanitized without chemicals regularly to reduce the dust mite population in your home.
Studies show that even a brand new mattress can reach high populations of dust mites and bacteria within 6 months, however customers who have their beds treated with an anti-microbial can extend their treatments to 12-18 months. If you are in the hospitality industry or have lots of different people staying in your bed, please contact us about our Regular sanitization program to give your guest a peaceful nights rest.
While a healthy sleeping environment will never heal a persons allergy, international studies show that the processes Virus Busterz uses will significantly reduce exposure to the dust mite allergies while in bed and thus reduce the symptoms they face.
The process is done in your house and the duration of the process depends on the House size. It will take approximately 20-30 minutes to complete the same.
The house is ready to be used just after the treatment. As we don’t use any chemicals.

Yes, plastic sheets are extremely dangerous to the pores of the body and harmful to kids. While sleeping for 08 to 10 hours your body is breathing. It’s just like putting a plastic bag on your face, what will happen after few minutes? So remove the plastic sheets from the bed mattress immediately after purchase, otherwise it can trigger back and other muscular problems.
