PALM SPRINGS--Foggers are the latest weapon to fight the Swine flu.

Most people are infected by germs on flat surfaces such as doors, tables, desks, floors, door knobs and even ceilings.

Palm Springs-based American Leak Detection has developed a fogging device that dispenses a disinfectant.

Spokesman John Davis says it’s effective against an array of viruses. “It includes HIV, herpes, tuberculosis, the bird flu, E-coli, Hepatitis B and C among others.”

The sanitizer mist is eco-friendly and is becoming popular at schools and restaurants.
