Small particle cleaning (SPC) is a specialized cleaning method designed to remove ultra-fine contaminants from indoor environments, including mold fragments, mycotoxins, and dust particles that are invisible to the eye but harmful to sensitive individuals. Unlike standard cleaning, which targets visible dirt, small particle cleaning focuses on microscopic particles that can remain in a home even after traditional remediation.
This method is especially important for those with chronic inflammatory conditions like CIRS (Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome), asthma, or chemical sensitivities. It involves the use of HEPA vacuums, non-toxic wiping techniques, and strict cross-contamination protocols to ensure that particles are physically removed rather than stirred up or left behind.
In medically sound remediation, small particle cleaning is not optional, it’s a critical step toward restoring a truly safe indoor environment.
