The Secret of Bad Air Sponge
The secret of the product is an odor removal process we refer to as “Deghosting”. During this process, the Bad Air Sponge will actually draw out odors from materials and objects in your room including wall board, upholstery, fabric, carpet, curtains, furniture, and any other porous product that has trapped odors within itself. The Bad Air Sponge also emits a very light trace fragrance that becomes undetectable as the product disperses itself throughout the room. This entire process leaves you with air that is fresh and free of pollutants.
