5 Home Health Fears Bactronix Can Help You Overcome

Are you worried about the health risks and potential damage caused by mold, bacteria, viruses, bugs and other harmful microbes in your home or business? If so, then it’s time to take control of your space with Bactronix. Our innovative services provide powerful solutions for getting rid of these foes and ensuring that your space is clean and safe. Here’s 5 ways Bactronix can help you overcome your fears of these pesky and sometimes invisible adversaries! 

Mold Remediation 

Mycophobia is the extreme fear of mold and fungi. The term mycophobia comes from the Greek words mycos, meaning “fungus,” and phobos, which means “to dread or to fear.” This phobia forms due to an individual being terrified at the thought of becoming ill from coming into contact with or consuming mold or fungi. 

Mold can grow anywhere, including on carpet, inside walls, HVAC ducts, and even on hard surfaces. While mold certainly isn’t pleasant-looking in a home or business, the more significant issues are the health effects it can cause. If you find mold growing on any surface in your home or business, it’s time for mold remediation. Remediation is an extensive, in-depth process, and is best left to professionals – like us!

Effectively killing mold isn’t as easy as you might think. After decades of remediation experience, we developed two proprietary eco-responsible products that destroy and prevent mold without harming human health or the environment – BactroKill and BactroBlock. 

During remediation, BactroKill is applied first to weaken and rupture the dangerous biofilm that supports mold growth. An exclusive agent then infiltrates the cell environment and destroys the organism. Then, to further prevent regrowth, BactroBlock is applied. This proprietary blend can coat both porous and non-porous surfaces and it establishes a microbiostatic antimicrobial protection barrier to inhibit regrowth of bacteria, mold, and fungi.

Disinfecting your Home & Vehicles 

Germophobia is the fear of germs. In this case, “germs” refers broadly to any microorganism that causes disease — for instance, bacteria, viruses, or parasites.

The distress caused by a germophobia causes some individuals to go to extreme lengths to avoid contamination. They might avoid places where germs are plentiful, such as public bathrooms, restaurants, or buses. Some places are harder to avoid, such as school or work. In these places, actions like touching a doorknob or pressing a button in an elevator can lead to significant anxiety.

While generic cleaning products help you keep things tidy, disinfectants are essential in killing and reducing these harmful germs on surfaces and objects. That’s why we developed our state-of-the-art BactroKill cleaning formula and Bactronizing disinfection process. Which when combined, are guaranteed to eliminate 99.9% of bacteria, viruses, and illness causing germs.

Our solution is applied with an electrostatic spray system, which is the most effective way to coat surfaces. These systems work by passing atomized droplets of disinfecting solution through an electrode in order to negatively charge them. These negatively charged droplets are then magnetically attracted to surfaces and bond to them, including hard-to-reach places – effectively disinfecting them.

Our BactroKill formula is EPA registered and free of any harsh chemicals, making it not only non-toxic to humans and animals, but safe to use on furniture or on a vehicle’s delicate interior without causing any damage or leaving harmful fumes or residue.

Air Duct Cleaning

Do dirt and dust make you crazy? Rupophobia is the extreme and irrational fear of dust and dirt. In extreme cases, rupophobia can cause someone to spend unnecessarily long hours cleaning their house, car, office space etc. If this impulse is not satisfied, it can lead to a great sense of general dissatisfaction and anxiety.

If you regularly clean and disinfect surfaces in your home or business, you see the value in having a clean space. But what about the air? Health conditions like allergies, asthma, COPD, and others can be triggered or made worse by contaminants in the air. Dirty air ducts make it easy for mold spores and bacteria to be circulated throughout your space. Plus, allergy triggers like fungi, pollen, dust mites and pet dander can all linger in your HVAC system and be recirculated as well. 

While there are no hard and fast rules around how often to clean your air ducts, the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) recommends an annual inspection of your HVAC system. Regular checks and cleanings can help identify potential problems, remove contaminants, and improve your indoor air quality (IAQ). 

Flea & Tick Control

Entomophobia is the name for a persistent and extreme fear of insects. If a person has entomophobia, their fear or anxiety is often based around the danger posed by insects. 

Flea and tick-borne diseases can be harmful to you and your pets – which is why prevention is key. Prevention is easier said than done, but with the use of a good flea and tick treatment like BactroBUG, you can reduce the risk of flea infestations or tick borne illnesses. 

We developed BactroBUG with your pets and family in mind. This non-toxic and eco-responsible formula doesn’t stain, won’t leave a film on surfaces, and does not have a lingering chemical odor. It’s safe to use on bedding, fabric, upholstery and carpets, and it deters more than just fleas, ticks and mosquitos. BactroBUG also fights against bed bugs, roaches, ants, lice, mosquitoes, aphids, and more. You can also apply BactroBug directly to your pet’s fur, as well as to indoor and outdoor areas to prevent future infestations for 30-90 days. 

Water Damage Restoration

Contamination OCD (C-OCD) is the fear of things being dirty or contaminated. People with C-OCD often have intrusive thoughts about germs, bacteria, and mold invading their space. These individuals may also avoid places or objects that they perceive to be contaminated.

If your home or business has suffered any kind of water damage, then chances are your environment could be contaminated by dangerous mold. Water damage can occur in many forms, including plumbing failure, flooding, or even high humidity. While most restoration companies provide services and assistance to remove water and repair your home or business, most are not certified to properly mitigate mold once all is said and done.

At Bactronix, we use our state-of-the-art drying and removal equipment to ensure that moisture in your structure is removed quickly. Afterwards we apply our BactroKill and BactroBlock formulas that are 100% safe, eco-responsible, and proven effective at eliminating mold—and keeping it from coming back!
