Hotel Chain To Sterlize Rooms Using UV Light

Yeah something tells me they won't get things *that* clean with UV wands:

Under the "How it works" tab:

 

"Disinfection of items or surfaces can generally be achieved by holding the UV-C Sanitizer Wand over an object or surface for 20 seconds at a distance of approximately 1-2 inches."

 

I doubt they'll be going over everything at a distance of 1-2 inches for 20 seconds each!

I concur, Uv has been used for decades in health care settings such as dialysis rooms, where it is turned on all night.  Also used in water treatment.  Wands are in use for backcountry water treatment. In that case the camper is motivated to do it properly. 

 

I dont see hotel cleaners doing a good job (in general).  20 seconds is a long time to wait when you have a quota.
