Here's some good info on UV light, basically just open the blinds and windows and let the sunshine in. Fm 21-76 and other FMs for personal hygiene calls it a sun bath.

This may help reduce the risk of today's existing bio hazard.

Chemical scents are bad for you and IAQ. If you smell that bad; take a bath!

Germicidal UV light is a very specific wavelength, 325nm I think. You can't buy bulbs that generate that in regular stores, I researched it and tried. And sunlight is not all 325nm. Also, the shorter the wavelength, the more damage UV does to your corneas.

You might bet those bulbs in a specialty hospital/medical supply store though, or they could special order it for you.
