In this video, I'll teach you a microfiber cleaning protocol that can transform your indoor environment by not only removing harmful pollutants like mold/mycotoxins, but also by enhancing your floor’s ability to attract and trap airborne particles. This method is especially powerful for those with environmental sensitivities, offering a way to improve indoor air quality far beyond what air purifiers and HEPA vacuums can achieve on their own.
You’ll also hear from John Banta, a leading industrial hygienist, who shares his expertise on why microfiber is the ultimate tool for creating a cleaner, safer living space. Learn how this approach can help reduce your exposure to toxins and improve your health.
