Germs Be Gone!

For Your Germ Filled Friends…by Christabelle

My sister is a teacher.  A fourth grade to be exact…the dirty, Pig Pen from Peanuts kind.  Every year at this time,  she gets inundated with presents from her colleagues, friends and, of course, her current rug-rats.  A box of cookies here, a bracelet there – she is overwhelmed with the generosity of everyone around her. Sure wish I had a cool teacher like that. Well, this year, I got MY teacher sister the best present EVER invented for someone who is surrounded by germs all day long.  I sure hope she isn’t reading this blog posting…it is going to spoil Christmas morning!

So let’s start with the “gross” factor:

• Desktops have almost 21,000 germs per square inch and phones more than 25,000 per square inch (compared with a mere 49 per square inch on toilet seats).
• Highly contagious infectious particles can spray from a sneeze at speeds of up to 200 miles per hour, landing at a distance of three feet from the offender and survive there for over 24 hours.
• According to the Center for Disease Control, 164 million school days are lost annually due to illness.
• In the course of a year, people in the United States suffer from one billion colds, according to some estimates.

Enter Pocket Purifier…a handheld device (small enough to keep in your purse, on your desk, in your briefcase and even in your car console) that with a flick of a switch can rid germs and other nasty buggers from your life.  The Pocket Purifier™ has a built-in UV-C bulb that when turned on and exposed to surface areas or items needing purification, will attack the germs and bacteria killing their DNA, and preventing them from reproducing and growing.

Use it everywhere…your desk, your phone, your computer keyboard, the kids toys, your remote controls, the steering wheel and SO MANY OTHER LOCATIONS!  Here are the amazing benefits and features:

• Built in 4 watt germicidal ultraviolet light, deactivates the DNA of bacteria, viruses and other pathogens destroying their ability to multiply.
• The specially designed UV-Lid™ helps avoid any harm of ultraviolet light to eyes and skin and also enhances the germ-killing function.
• Suitable for purifying masks, kitchen utensils, telephone sets, nail clippers, scissors, baby toys, pacifiers, cribs, strollers and most everyday items.
• Powered by 4 (AA) batteries for easy carrying and safe usage.

For just $29.95 you too can zap away germs and other “icky” things from your presence…and  you can do it in either black or pink (how fashionable!). Available at http://www.purelyproducts.com/products/pocket-purifier/default.aspx
