MOLD, MILDEW & BACTERIA

RISKS, TREATMENTS & RESULTS

Living in South Florida has its perks, such as the warm climate and beautiful coastline. However, the region’s tropical rains and persistent humidity create ideal conditions for the growth of mold and mildew, posing significant problems. AutoSanitizing.com specializes in the expert elimination of bacteria, mold, and mildew. These intruders are challenging to completely remove, even for professionals. If your vehicle has mold and mildew, attempting to remove them without the proper tools and knowledge is not advisable. AutoSanitizing.com offers professional sanitization services that not only eliminate these issues but also implement preventative measures to reduce their recurrence. Mold, an active fungus essential for natural decomposition, can cause substantial structural damage to carpets, floorboards, upholstery, metal, leather, and hard plastics over time. Mold and mildew often coexist, with mold appearing fuzzy and exhibiting various colors depending on the affected material.


If you notice patches resembling mold, it’s essential to contact AutoSanitizing immediately. Letting professionals address the root cause ensures a germ and allergen-free driving experience.

MOLD

Mold has airborne spores that cause many respiratory problems and triggers allergic reactions. In a closed automobile setting, the inhalation of these spores is intensified, especially through your air ventilation system, and can cause migraine headaches, inflammation and pain in the joints, and extreme fatigue.

MILDEW

Mildew is either white and powdery or yellow and downy and grows in a flat pattern. Over time, mildew turns brown or black. It too triggers allergies and is the culprit of many respiratory problems. Both put off distinctly stale, stuffy, musty, or sour odors – often the first sign to an unknowing car owner that mold and mildew are growing somewhere in their vehicle. Mold and mildew can form in a matter of a few days, especially if it sits for long periods in dark parking garages near the beach. It is one of the most common maintenance details we perform at AutoSanitizing.com, and where there is mold and mildew, there are also germs and bacteria!

BACTERIA

Bacteria are microscopic, single-celled organisms that are capable of thriving in diverse environments. Although there are some good bacteria like those that live inside the human body and fight bad bacteria, inside your vehicle, they are all bad!

Caused by spilled or even discarded particles of food, drinks, and pet dander, bacteria are the culprit of all bad smells in your vehicle and that odor will not go away until they are removed at the source of the spill or accident.

When It Comes To Your Health...

The reality is that your interiors by their very nature are a hotbed of disgusting contaminants that thrive in dampness, heat, and a lack of ventilation, incubating to create an unhealthy atmosphere inside your vehicle!

While you are spreading germs and bacteria yourself, a great deal of the respiratory and allergy-related problems you experience inside your vehicle are exacerbated by your car’s HVAC ventilation system. Mold can build up around your exterior ventilation conduits, beneath your windshield wipers and under the hood, blowing in through the vents, right into your face!

Removal Process

AutoSanitizing.com comes to you! Our mobile automotive sanitizing units are operated by IICRC-certified technicians, each fully equipped and self-contained with our complete decontamination arsenal on-board.

All we have to do is pull up to your location and get to work steaming, cleaning, and sanitizing!

We use proven techniques to treat the affected area with antimicrobial products, and then we apply antimicrobial protection to hinder further growth of odor-causing bacteria, mold, mildew, and other microorganisms that hide in unsuspecting places.

LEVEL 1

Depending on the severity and location of the mold and mildew problem, Level 1 involves a dry mold vacuum treatment followed by hot steam cleaning the entire interior including leather, plastic, fabric, headliner, air condition system, etc.

LEVEL 2

This level involves a combination of ozone and fogger treatments to maximize the sanitation of your car’s interior and eliminate strong wet mildew odors.

LEVEL 3

This level involves replacing the air filters and ultra-fumigation flushing the air conditioning system to permit fresher air and a healthier environment, followed by an application of an anti-bacterial coating that will kill harmful bacteria upon contact. We apply this coating to your interior fabrics, mats, seats, upholstery and your air conditioning system.

Advanced Analysis App - ATP

Auto Sanitizing follows up with a complementary data software analysis called an ATP test that ensures the air and surfaces in your car are the cleanest possible. 

Adenosine Triphosphate, or ATP, the energy molecule found in all organic material, including bacteria and human tissues, making it a perfect indicator when trying to determine if a healthy environmental surface is clean or not.
