Dr. Thanawat, a 29-year-old resident at a 320-bed provincial hospital in Kamphaeng Phet, had morning congestion, a rash on his arms and neck, and a worsening cough for eleven months. He blamed stress and night shifts. The real cause was the on-call room mattress, slept on by six to eight staff every day, in a windowless air-conditioned room, never once sun-dried in seven years.

A 40-bed elderly care home outside Bangkok had nine families move their relatives out within six months, all citing the same reason: the smell in the building. The home cleaned daily and changed linen to standard. Here is the real cause, and how ozone disinfection resolved it.

A two-screen, 380-seat community cinema in a northern province lost nearly half its audience in a year, despite showing the same films as the mall multiplexes at half the price. The real cause was musty odour from the fabric seating that vacuuming could not remove. Here is how ozone disinfection solved it without replacing a single seat.

A 120-room student dormitory near a university has only 14 days between old tenants moving out and new ones moving in. Last year 31 rooms still had an odour, and new tenants asked to leave or for a rent reduction. Here is how the dormitory solved it with ozone disinfection and completed every room within the window.

A five-pitch artificial turf rental business in Pathum Thani lost almost half its weeknight bookings in a single year, despite unchanged pricing and pitches still in good condition. The real cause was mosquitoes on site between eight and ten in the evening. Here are the real numbers, and how the AIROFOG AT35 thermal fogger brought the bookings back.

A procurement officer at a government agency submitted an equipment budget request for thermal foggers three years running and was cut every time. In year four she changed how she wrote it and it passed first time. Here is what she changed a guide for local authority, school, hospital and government staff who have to write requests of this kind.

A housing estate committee spent 190,000 baht on the wrong type of machine and barely used it, because nobody had explained that thermal foggers and ULV machines work on entirely different principles and suit entirely different jobs. This guide sets out the difference clearly, and how to choose the right type for your work.

A large petrol station and truck stop on a north-eastern highway saw night-time retail sales fall 38 percent in a year, while fuel volumes did not drop at all.

A primary school of 780 pupils in Khon Kaen recorded 23 confirmed dengue cases in a single term, until some parents refused to send their children at all. Here is what the school found when it finally surveyed properly, and how the AIROFOG AT35 thermal fogger changed the numbers within one term.

A mid-sized pest control company in Chonburi lost annual service contracts worth 2.4 million baht after its thermal foggers failed mid-job three times in two months.

A 48-pond white shrimp farm in Samut Songkhram received three formal complaints to the sub-district administration in a single year, because saltmarsh biting midges and mosquitoes from the ponds drifted into the neighbouring village every evening. Here is a problem aquaculture farms across the country share, and how the AIROFOG AT35 thermal fogger solved both the insects and the community relationship.

A 60-bed community hospital in northern Thailand identified five patients who acquired dengue while admitted, in a single rainy season.

Here is what the infection control team found, and how the AIROFOG AT35 thermal fogger became part of the prevention system.

A protected-cultivation melon farm of 12 greenhouses in Chachoengsao lost an entire crop worth 1.8 million baht, because whiteflies entering the houses carried a mosaic virus with them. Here is the real cause which was not torn netting and how the AIROFOG AT35 thermal fogger became the farm's primary vector control tool.

A temple in Nakhon Pathom holds a seven-day annual festival drawing more than 6,000 people. Every night the crowd began drifting away before nine, even though the programme ran until eleven.

A 388-unit condominium in Bang Na lost 26 residents in a single year, and the management office was receiving an average of 19 mosquito complaints a month. The real cause was not building hygiene.

Here is what the camp actually lost, where the real cause turned out to be, and how the AIROFOG AT35 thermal fogger filled the calendar again.

A 180-rai rubber plantation in Trang lost nine tappers in three months. Not over wages, and not over rubber prices, but because mosquito density between one and five in the morning had become more than the crew could work through. Here is what it cost, and how the AIROFOG AT35 thermal fogger brought the full crew back within two months.

A 340-worker camp on a condominium project in Samut Prakan recorded 19 confirmed dengue cases in three weeks, forcing an 11-day stoppage and delay penalties above one hundred thousand baht per day.

An 18-hole course in Pathum Thani could not sell a single full twilight round for two years, even though morning tee times were always full. The cause was not price and not course condition. It was mosquitoes rising from the irrigation canal and holding ponds from four in the afternoon, driving players to quit at hole 12. This is the real arithmetic of what that cost, and how the AIROFOG AT35 thermal fogger brought the evening back.

A customer being bitten does not complain to the staff. They just finish quickly, skip dessert, skip the second round of drinks, and never come back.

Nothing brings residents onto a road faster than something that reaches the dinner table in their own home. Flies from a waste site are exactly that.

A shopper can film a fly on a butcher's block and post it to a community group in thirty seconds. A market that loses its reputation this way needs a year to win customers back.

A school is where 1,240 children spend eight hours a day, five days a week. If infected Aedes are present on the grounds, the disease does not spread one child at a time. It spreads a classroom at a time.
