Even if you haven't heard the word "BIO-CONTAMINANTS" before, you come in contact with these substances almost every day. For exad to discover with a naked eye, the

OUR  HOMES ARE GROUND ZERO
BIO-CONTAMINANTS THRIVES IN MOISTURE-RICH ENVIRONMENTS
 

One of the most dangerous bacteria zones for bio-contaminants is your home. Biofilm exists everywhere there is a surface, moisture, and nutrients. Some of the most biofilm-friendly places are kitchens, dishwashers, bathrooms, washing machines, jetted bathtubs and hot tubs. Anywhere you use water in your home is a great place for the biofilm to grow. These places have a variety of surfaces, plenty of moisture, and sufficient nutrients from people and food.

Basically, all they need to grow is a surface with access to water or other aqueous solutions and favorable conditions.

 

HOW TO GET RID OF BIOFILM 
THE BEST M IS TO KEEP BIOFILM FROM FORMING IN THE FIRST PLACE. 
 

Forming biofilm is very easy. All you have to do is use the regular kitchen appliances and take a shower or a bath. Getting rid of the bacteria is much harder. 

 


VERY RESISTANT TO ANTIMINTEICROBIAL CLEANERS LIKE BLEACH

A biofilm is a self-sustaining substance with microorganisms that live in an extracellular matrix on surfaces that have access to water. The biofilm protects bacteria from being removed by antimicrobial agents. In other words, biofilms can grow in any surface exposed to liquids.

Biofilms are complex structures with their own fluid systems that consist of almost 95% water. Microorganisms in the biofilm can attach to the surface of almost any object and create a slimy substance. In theory, a biofilm can be formed by only one type of microorganisms, but in fact, biofilms are often communities of different types of bacteria, yeasts, fungi, protozoa, algae, and other little organisms, along with corrosive products and debris. 

One of the interesting properties of biofilms is that it's really tough to destroy them. When they are attacked, they aren't eliminated. When you use a cleaning agent (for example, chlorine), they retain secretions that hold to the surface and become even stronger than before. That's why a biofilm problem often gets worse with time.
