DeoGerm: Germ & Odor Elimination for Carpets and Upholstery

Some odors and contamination go beyond routine cleaning. DeoGerm is Be Green Carpet Cleaning’s professional germ and odor eliminator, designed to address germs, bacteria, and trapped odors caused by pet stains, bodily fluids, mildew, and mold-related contamination.

This article explains what DeoGerm is, how it works, when it’s recommended, and how Be Green ensures the right level of treatment through professional inspection.

DeoGerm is a powerful deodorizer with disinfecting properties used after cleaning to treat areas affected by contamination.

DeoGerm:

• Kills germs and bacteria

• Neutralizes odor-causing organic residue at the source

• Is not a fragrance mask

• Uses essential oils for a light, fresh scent (lemon, orange, or seasonal)

It may be:

• Applied directly to problem areas, or

• Combined with our VLM cleansing solution, depending on conditions

DeoGerm is recommended for mild to moderate contamination, including:

• Pet urine and pet-related odors

• Bodily fluids (urine, feces, vomit, blood, etc.)

• Mildew and mold-related odors (not mold remediation)

It is commonly used in homes with pets, children, or recurring odor concerns.

• DeoGerm does not permanently mask odors

• Results depend on the severity, frequency, and duration of contamination

• Severe or long-term contamination may require multiple applications

Any additional treatment needed is always discussed before proceeding.

Some contamination cannot be seen under normal lighting. When needed, technicians use a UV black light to inspect carpet, upholstery, and other cleanable surfaces.

• Proteins from urine and bodily fluids fluoresce under UV light

• This allows technicians to:

  • Locate hidden contamination

  • Determine severity

  • Identify how many areas are affected

UV inspection ensures DeoGerm is applied only where needed and at the appropriate level.

DeoGerm is priced by the area treated.

• Rooms: $50 per room

• Smaller areas (such as hallways or closets) and upholstery are priced differently

• Larger or multiple affected areas may require more than one application

The technician will review findings and pricing with you before treatment begins.

These are often used together but serve different purposes:

• Enzymatic cleaners break down organic matter (proteins from pet accidents)

• DeoGerm disinfects and deodorizes after cleaning

Using both helps achieve more complete odor and bacteria control when contamination is present.

Our Standard Maintenance Cleaning includes a 30-day Service Guarantee for routine issues such as food spills, foot traffic, wicking, or drying concerns.

Contamination (pet accidents, bodily fluids, mildew, or mold-related issues) is not included under the standard guarantee.
When recommended treatments like DeoGerm are added, clients have the option to enhance coverage for those specific areas.

• Helps create a healthier indoor environment

• Targets bacteria and odors at the source

• Supports longer-lasting cleaning results

• Provides peace of mind for pet owners and families

Does DeoGerm guarantee odor removal?
Results depend on the level and history of contamination. Mild to moderate issues respond well; severe contamination may require additional treatment.

Is DeoGerm safe for pets and children?
Yes. DeoGerm uses essential oils and is applied professionally for safe, effective use.

Will my home smell strong afterward?
No. The scent is light and temporary and fades as the product dries.

How does the technician know if DeoGerm is needed?
Technicians use inspection, customer history, and UV black light detection when necessary.
