FAQS
Probiotics, as we know them, began their journey over a century ago when Russian scientist and Nobel Prize winner Elie Metchnikoff of the Pasteur Institute in Paris discovered them. It took a few decades to the 1970s with Professor Tomotari Mitsuoka’s scientific work that paved the way for the application where intestinal flora balance enhances human health and prevention of diseases;
Probiotics are beneficial microorganisms that naturally exist in nature. These microorganisms are important for our body’s ecosystem and environment, as they conduct crucial tasks, including keeping the pathogenic (harmful germs) population in check by grabbing their resources—food and territory. Without these, the pathogens cannot survive.
The modern living/working facilities we have designed in recent decades provide comfort but concurrently have emerged as a major source of illnesses. The reason is that modern living space destroys the balance of the micro world ecosystem – the one that is not visible to the naked eye, and therefore, its perils are not easily recognized. Over time, our bad habit, namely the overuse of chemicals that indiscriminately kill all microorganisms upon contact, including the beneficial types, has destroyed the ecological balance of the indoor ecosystem. Only recently have science and studies been able to prove the direct linkage of indoor health to human (and pets) health, quality of life, and longevity.
Ironically, as hard as we try to create sterile, hygienic indoor areas, we manage to accomplish the opposite, eventually staying with the most harmful and aggressive creatures that have become immune to chemicals – these notorious “superbugs” that rule our areas unchallenged.
The dire situation and consequent illnesses inflicted on us due to the sickness of our buildings emphasize the urgency of stopping harming delicate ecosystems and instead adopting natural ways to foster a more balanced and healthier indoor environment. Our innovation does exactly that with the incorporation of safe and effective beneficial probiotics that adapt to the conditions of our modern indoor environments. Activated by our sophisticated dispersion devices, EnviroBiotics is released in an exact manner that keeps our indoors balanced, clean, and healthy.
We are at the beginning of a new era where the crucial role of beneficial bacteria (Probiotics) on our health, mental moods, life longevity, and prevention of infectious diseases is discovered; recent studies even link our microbiome to levels of obesity, neurological balance, and even cancer. Our focus is on healing the indoor environments that directly contribute to our self-healing, which is made possible by making our indoors a cleaner place where our immune system may not be constantly challenged by germs, providing it a chance to heal and better cope with keeping us well and healthier.
By allowing EnviroBiotics in your life, you become a member of a community that takes correct actions to empower and foster your health as the health of our natural resources by reducing chemical pollution that harms our soil, water reservoirs, and air.
Our devices automatically & continuously disperse microscopic-sized Probiotics agents that form a protective layer of microflora on all surfaces and objects. EnviroBiotics immediately go to work, seek food, and consume it upon reaching objects and surfaces. Its food is dirt, dust, protein waste, and other pollutants that accumulate on our properties. No more uninterrupted feast with access to an abundance of food and space for the germs; denied crucial resources, which leads to their eventual decrease with continued loss of the battle to the probiotics that outnumbered them and efficiently consumed their resources.
Moreover, harmful organic particles are a known source of allergens, and when consumed, allergies and diseases are vastly reduced. The result is a healthier, safer, and more pleasant indoor environment, where bad odor disappears, too.

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the World Health Organization (WHO) all declare that the danger of germs that stick to surfaces and objects is significantly larger than the risk of particles in the air. In fact, most infectious diseases are contracted by touching contaminated objects that are ingested by breathing.
Therefore, it is most important that our solution be directed to the source of danger, not where it is easy. Air filters (purifiers), as their name imply, filter and purify the air and only the air; moreover, for their designed purpose, air filters may not fully clean the entire air as they all use a cleaning chamber and a sucking engine to get the air to the chamber, where not all the air is passed via that chamber,
A bigger shortcoming is the inability of air filters to reach germs that stick to surfaces and objects.
EnviroBiotics is the only proactive technique that protects all elements of indoor spaces, with special care for surfaces and objects—the place where the focus of protection should be. Moreover, clean surfaces do not omit harmful particles to the air, making the air cleaner and fresher.
For more information, revisit the scientific publication in our Resource section to learn more about the danger of contaminated surfaces and the reason these must be cleansed to keep us healthier. Learning that many airborne contaminants originate on surfaces, including hidden and hard-to-reach, such as air ducts, and cleaning the air while keeping the source contaminated has a lot to do with too little to accomplish.
EnviroBiotics are designed to be a holistic and inclusive solution for all indoors and their conditions. Taking on such an ambitious goal, we had to develop a technology that is effective against the known germs of our indoors without exclusions.
Our technology “mode of action “operates in a manner that does not discriminate between different kinds of pathogens, and its efficacy is very similar across all types of known families of molds and bacteria. It can be said that EnviroBiotics is “blind” with respect to color and origin of its enemies. This is a considerable advantage compared to pinpoint solutions that target a specific germ and only it (the use of bacteriophage as an example). EnviroBiotics “blindness” provides a safety net against the future generation of germs that will appear sooner or later. Our scientists keep testing new kinds of pathogens again whenever presented (an example is our taking a recent study against Candida Auris – a mold that is rapidly spreading with a high mortality rate), making sure that EnviroBiotics shall protect us in the future in the same manner it is protecting now.
Furthermore, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) declared Enviro-Biotics as GRAS – Generally Recognized as Safe. In addition, the US’s Made Safe, Parent Tested Parent Approved (PTPA), Australia’s Sensitive Choice, British AllergyUK, Italian SIMA, EU’s EcoCert, and Chilean ministry of health have all certified Enviro-Biotics, among others.
The active ingredients consist of naturally occurring (none is GMO), safe, and effective probiotics associated with “recognized as safe” families of Bacillus strains.
EnviroBiotics contains multiple probiotic strains that complement each other and ensure maximum efficacy against the various types of germs in indoor environments. The selection process of our probiotics has been a multi-year collaboration endeavor of South Korean, American, and Israeli scientists who jointly screened hundreds of naturally occurring probiotic strains that were isolated from soil and plants; each strain had been analyzed not only for the prerequisite of absolute safety for human and animals but its complementary efficacy concerning the other probiotic strains that are part of our formula; the result is a highly effective formula that protects against substantially all pathogens and allergens of our indoor environments.
Enviro-Biotics have undergone and passed the required tests per EPA standards at EPA-certified GLP (Good Laboratory Practice) labs.
These challenges include touch of skin and eyes, inhalation, dermal and oral sensitivity, and inner impact on crucial organs such as the brain, lungs, liver, and heart.
We will disclose more of the studies and share results upon request.
Upon successful completion, EnviroBiotics is now EPA registered (94339-1, August 2021). Furthermore, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) declared Enviro-Biotics ingredients GRAS – Generally Recognized as Safe. We have submitted our products to other public health registration forums where, after their review and testing, they endorse our technologies and products. Some additional agents that certified EnviroBiotics are US’s Made Safe, Parent Tested Parent Approved (PTPA), Australia’s Sensitive Choice, British AllergyUK, Italian SIMA, and EU’s Ecocert and Chilean ministry of health.
Allergens are the triggers of allergies. Without allergens, allergic reactions are unlikely to occur, illustrating a classic cause-and-effect relationship. Unfortunately, most common practices for managing allergies today focus on devices and medications that react to the symptoms of an allergy attack. These methods do not address the root cause—the allergens themselves. It’s similar to trying to dry out a home with various efficient tools while the roof continues to leak.
To effectively combat allergies, we need to address the source: the allergens, in a proactive manner. This is exactly what EnviroBiotics is designed to do. It targets the sources of allergies, such as dust mites, mold toxins, pet dander, cockroach waste, pollen, and other organic materials that may not even be visible to the naked eye. Effectively dispersed throughout an area, EnviroBiotics seek out these waste products, which serve as nutrients for them. By diligently consuming these allergens, they diminish both the allergens present and the likelihood of allergic reactions.
Bacillus are naturally occurring microorganisms that help maintain ecological balance by colonizing spaces and reducing the presence of harmful organisms through the competition for nutrients and space. This is how balance is maintained in nature. EnviroBiotics achieve a similar effect in our indoor environments by continuously and safely introducing beneficial probiotics, which replace harmful germs and promote a healthier space.
Being quiet and idle 99% of the time, some may suspect that the device is not working. Here’s how to determine if the device is faulty or simply turned “off”:
When our device is connected to power, or if it is battery-operated, there are LEDs, with at least one always illuminated, indicating that it is functioning. If none of the LEDs are on, please check the power connection or recharge the batteries. If it is connected and recharged but still no LED is illuminated, contact our support center for further assistance.
If the device is on but you are uncertain whether it is dispersing, remember that it is designed to quietly disperse for only a few seconds, and this occurs just once an hour. Each device has a “force” dispersion mode that allows you to test its dispersion. Please consult the user guide or video tutorial for more information on how to operate it.
A significant part of our research has focused on measuring the exact quantity of probiotics released into our indoor areas. While there is no safety risk associated with using surplus quantities, we prioritize discovering the minimum amount needed for optimal efficacy. Our repeated studies have established a formula and devices that precisely deliver the necessary amount to protect your indoors 24/7.
To accommodate different room sizes, our product line includes multiple shapes and sizes, each designed to operate effectively in the corresponding space. Please consult our product section to determine which devices best suit your needs.
We design devices that provide complete protection for specific areas through continuous operation. By keeping your device running without interruption, you ensure your safety and security.
Turning off the device or moving it between different areas can compromise its efficiency and the level of protection we strive to maintain. Therefore, we do not recommend turning off the device or sharing it between various indoor spaces.
The financial savings gained by delaying a refill beyond the recommended 90 days are minimal. Our products are priced to be affordable for everyone, and our code of ethics ensures that we provide products regardless of customers’ financial situations. Please contact us to ensure you receive a product that meets your needs and budget.
The numerous pieces of feedback and testimonies collected over the past few years indicate a significant positive impact on communities suffering from allergies. However, if you are among those who do not experience substantial relief, we recommend reviewing your environment. It’s important to pay attention to all areas where you spend time, including your office, place of study, and even your mode of transportation (such as your vehicle).
Unlike medications that you carry with you everywhere, allergies are triggered by indoor allergens. Therefore, it may be necessary to re-evaluate your protection measures in all indoor spaces. For individuals with heightened sensitivity, broader protection in every area is essential, which may require additional deployment of devices. Ensure that you safeguard every space where you spend a significant amount of time to minimize the likelihood of allergens being present nearby.
Scents, or perfumes, merely mask unpleasant odors by spreading a dominant “pleasant” aroma that distracts your sense of smell, preventing you from detecting the bad odor. However, fragrances do not eliminate the source of the odor or reduce its health risks.
The root cause of most bad odors is the bacterial activity of germs. Common examples include active molds and natural waste produced by our bodies, such as perspiration and urine. By suppressing the activity of these germs, EnviroBiotics effectively terminates the production of bad odors, restoring fresher air.
The use of Bacillus spores as probiotics and bio-control agents has significantly increased in recent years. A new approach to controlling certain pathogenic microorganisms involves the use of antagonistic microorganisms. This strategy relies on the application of probiotic bacteria in the intestines of humans and animals to create an environment that is hostile to pathogens, thereby promoting the overall health of the host.
The expansion of the probiotic concept to environmental applications has introduced biocontrol, where the use of probiotics acts antagonistically toward existing pathogens. We are currently conducting multiple studies designed to measure the reduction of various indoor allergens and to evaluate the impact of this approach in a double-blind clinical study involving children with asthma.
For more information on how probiotics have been applied in hospitals and other challenging environments, please visit our Resources section, specifically the scientific publication area. There, you can learn about the significant reduction in pathogen presence and the subsequent decrease in nosocomial infections among patients and healthcare staff.
