OUR DISINFECTION PROCESS

How Dry Fog Disinfection Process Works

Dry fog disinfection is a proven method for sterilising indoor spaces affected by mould, viruses, and bacteria. Victoria Hygiene uses advanced dry fogging machines that atomise disinfectant into a fine mist, ensuring complete decontamination without leaving moisture or residue.

These are the steps we follow to eliminate contamination:

Step 1

Pre-Treatment Site Inspection

Our team inspects the affected areas to determine the extent of microbial presence and confirms if the space is suitable for dry fogging. We check for active leaks, moisture levels, and ventilation requirements to ensure optimal treatment results.

Step 2

Containment & Preparation

Sensitive equipment, electronics, and furniture are assessed and protected. Ventilation systems may be isolated, and access to treated rooms is restricted. We brief occupants on safety precautions and re-entry timelines.

Step 3

Dry Fog Application

Our technicians deploy fogging machines that emit a disinfectant mist with particle sizes under 10 microns. This mist fills the space evenly, penetrating hard-to-reach areas such as behind walls, under floors, inside ducts, and within porous surfaces to eliminate airborne and surface spores.

Step 4

Dwell Time & Neutralisation

The area remains sealed for the prescribed dwell time, allowing the fog to fully neutralise mould spores, bacteria, and odours. This ensures maximum efficacy without wetting or damaging treated surfaces.

Step 5

Post-Treatment Inspection & Recommendations

After fogging, we inspect the property to confirm successful disinfection. Occupants receive a detailed treatment summary and recommendations for long-term moisture control and preventative anti-mould strategies.

Once disinfection is complete, your indoor environment will be significantly cleaner, healthier, and mould-free. Dry fogging is a vital step in long-term mould prevention and is often combined with other remediation services. Our team is here to answer your questions and provide continued support in maintaining a safe and hygienic property.

QUICK TIPS

Prepare for & Maximise Dry Fogging Results

Dry fogging is most effective when combined with proper preparation and ongoing moisture control. To make the most of your disinfection treatment and prevent future mould issues, consider these practical steps:

Pre-Treatment Cleaning: Remove dust, debris, and surface clutter from affected rooms. Clean surfaces lightly to ensure maximum contact between disinfectant and microbial sources during fogging.
Fix Moisture Sources: Before fogging, fix any water leaks, seal gaps, and dry damp materials. Fogging won’t be effective if mould-friendly conditions return shortly after treatment.
Ventilate After Treatment: After the designated re-entry period, open windows and run exhaust fans to ventilate treated areas. This helps remove any lingering fog residue and refreshes indoor air.
Monitor Humidity Levels: Use a hygrometer to keep indoor humidity below 50%. Consider using dehumidifiers in high-risk areas such as bathrooms, basements, and laundry rooms.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Dry Fog Disinfection Questions Answered

Is dry fogging safe for my home and electronics?

Yes. Dry fog particles are ultra-fine and non-corrosive, making the treatment safe for electronics, fabrics, and furniture.

How long does the property need to be vacated during fogging?

You’ll typically need to vacate for 2–4 hours, depending on the property size and ventilation. Our team will guide you.

Does dry fogging remove visible mould?

No. It disinfects and kills spores but does not remove visible mould growth. Physical mould removal is required beforehand.

Can dry fogging prevent mould from coming back?

Yes, when combined with moisture control and anti-mould treatments, it greatly reduces the chance of regrowth.

Is it suitable for people with asthma or allergies?

Absolutely. Dry fogging eliminates allergens and improves air quality, but occupants should return after proper ventilation.

Do I need to prepare anything before treatment?

Yes. Clear out clutter, cover food and sensitive items, and follow the technician’s pre-treatment checklist for best results.
