About
Airbiotics is a revolutionary new cleaning product that is ENTIRELY CHEMICAL FREE.
Used in the same manner as traditional cleaning products, Airbiotics has an innovative and effective way of dealing with bacteria, viruses and all the usual dirt and debris that can build on our surfaces. Airbiotic products are pet friendly, skin friendly, environmentally friendly and once you have tried, will very quickly replace the caustic bleach and other damaging chemical cleaners in your home, school or office.
Airbiotics not only gets rid of all the usual grime and bacteria lurking on surfaces, but actually leaves an invisible film that keeps on working for days.
- kitchens counters
- glass
- mirrors
- hard floors
- ceramic tiles
- tables
- walls
- wooden surfaces
- electronic applicances
- toilets, baths and sinks
- bedding and soft surfaces (can combat dust mites)
The cost effective products last a long time, and leaves none of the chemical residue that can be left on food prep areas by chemical sprays.
It is also a fantastic product if you suffer with pet allergies, as there is a spray specifically designed to safely tackle the dander from pets.
Why use Airbiotics?
HYGIENE WITHOUT HARMFUL CHEMICALS
Airbiotics is a very clever and innovative product. In fact, Airbiotics is the future of chemical-free cleaning.
There are bacteria all around us; both inside and outside of our body (mouth, nose, gut, hair) and on every single thing that we touch. Our Smartphones often having more nasty bacteria lurking than a toilet seat (one to think on). Most bacteria live symbiotically with us, the ‘good’ bacteria, and actively kill off and digest the bad bacteria that is also all around. This bacteria keeps us safe and healthy, and keeps the bad stuff at bay.
Microorganisms that are not so good for us can cause disease, food spoilage and odours, and the microbes tend to form colonies and work together to aid their own survival.
Take the black stains that form on your bathroom grout as an example. This is the result of a number of different microorganisms living and working together. Known as a biofilm, it is made up of the bugs themselves, and their biological by-products. It forms a protective film on hard surfaces that can harbour pathogens.
Yes, a spray of bleach might solve the problem, but traditional chemical cleaners kill all the bacteria they encounter – both the good and the bad. That, alongside the excessive use of antibiotics, has resulted in an increase in resistent microorganisms.
How does Airbiotics work?
Airbiotics is all about the natural balance.
Airbiotics has harnessed the microbiology of these bacterial ecosystems for a simple but effective biological strategy to clean the home. Packed into every product are simply good bacteria, or ‘probiotics’, that cause you no harm whatsoever, but go to work immediately to literally digest the colonies of bad bacteria. These little guys really are your friends. They will consume pathogens and unhelpful bacteria anywhere, and actually leave a healthy biofilm of their own to continue the good work long after the surface has been cleaned.
This is a very recent innovation in cleaning but, once you have seen the results and understand how fantastic this cleaning method is, you will never return to the old-fashioned use of harmful chemicals.
Keith Harvey at The Oaks Direct is a complete convert to the system, and will happily talk you through the science and the impressive results they have had using these products.
Airbiotics is chemical free, non toxic, non abrasive, alcohol free, non gmo, organic, biodegradable, allergy free and hypoallergenic.
According to studies conducted by Princeton Consumer Research Corporation:
Airbiotics’ effect on contaminants is much longer (up to five days) than leading disinfectants (just a few hours).
Airbiotics All Purpose Cleaner, Home Spray (Mist), and Hand Cleaner were all dermatologically tested on human subjects to determine the irritation and sensitization potential of these products. All were determined to be safe for use, safe for skin, and hypoallergenic.
94.2% of home use study participants said that the product was excellent or good and 100% said they would recommend the All Purpose Cleaner regime to friends and family

About
The Shire Man & Van Hire
We are a local Stirlingshire couple that offer a friendly, professional and affordable solution to picking-up and moving items, both for individuals and businesses. Nothing is too much trouble, and we will happily move one item, do multiple runs or cover a full house move.
Based in Buchlyvie, Stirlingshire, we cover the whole of mainland UK. Removals available within Scotland, England & Wales.
The Shire Vans
We have mechanically sound vehicles with clean interiors, and will handle your items with care and diligence. The vans are cleaned inside after every single job when possible, and we always check to make sure nothing has been left behind. We do not carry rubbish, building debris or garden waste, so you can be sure that our interiors are dry, clean and fresh.
We are happy to give a free, no obligation estimate for any job.
We like small local jobs. We also like challenging jobs that take us somewhere new.
The Shire Man & Van Hire covers all of the UK and operates on an hourly basis, so whatever job you have us do, you can be sure that the price is fair and consistent for all of our customers. There are no additional charges for distance, as this is covered within your timed job, and distance is no obstacle.
Our time starts from the second we start the van up as this is when we are at work. The only small additional fees are for stairs and they vary depending upon how high you live plus extremely heavy or bulky items. We have now introduced a loyalty scheme for repeat customers whereby I can offer some 10% discount for those who come back time and again.
Motorcycle Breakdown Recovery
In the case of motorcycle breakdown, we are insured to take up to 2 passengers to their chosen destination (with their bike) at no additional cost.
Cancellation Policy
We do not charge for cancellations when at least 24 hours notice is given, however there will be a cancellation charge of 50% of the job if cancellation is received less than 24 hours prior to the job. This charge is to keep things fair, and reflects the removal jobs we will have missed by taking the booking.
The Shire Man & Van Hire – what we don’t do…
We do not operate runs to/from the tip or dump or carry any kind of rubble/’dirty’ materials. If you have a household item that is clean and dry, and you are having removed from within the house, we can take this to the tip. We want to give our customers 5* service, and a dirty and smelly van is not good for business.
Testimonials
Fantastic, reliable and trust worthy pair. Billy and Jen have done so many jobs for me. From moving house to delivering small packages. Always very accommodating to your needs and have never let me down. Can not fault them in anyway as you will discover when you use them.
Amazing service. My first ever big move after being in my flat for 18 years (man I have a lot of stuff) and they made it stress free. Turned up on time and didn’t complain once about the bazillion steps. They moved me from my top floor flat in Glasgow to a storage unit and then to Aberfoyle and although my stairs have broken others carrying less, they remained cheery throughout.
Really friendly and a great service. Would fully recommend and hope to use again. Billy did a house move from Thornhill to Dunecht for us. Great price and super efficient.

The Tree Inspector

C. A. Calvey, P.T.I., Tech.Cert (Arbor.A), Cert.Arb (RFS), BA Hons. Consulting Arborist Society (Professional Member)
Chris is one of only a handful of qualified tree inspectors in Scotland.
Chris carries out tree inspections across Scotland. While your local Tree Surgeon is likely to be a highly skilled tree worker, few are qualified inspectors, and it is vital to know you are legally covered when it comes to trees on your property.
Professional and friendly, Chris is well known in his field of work and advises home owners public bodies, country estates, Protected Areas, developers, property managers and insurance companies.
Home Owners
Every home owner should be aware that they have a responsibility when it comes to the trees on their own land. Tree owners are responsible for trees on their land and have a legal duty of care. It might be a tree is next to a footpath or road, or is at the boundary of another property, and can pose a potential risk to the public or another property. A tree inspection for £150 can save you many times that amount in the long run, and unecessary tree removal will cost in the region of £500.
Existing tree owners should have inspections carried out if no inspection has been carried out as soon as possible. With mature trees, an inspection every three years is recommended. Prospective homeowners should have the trees on a property inspected before purchasing a new home as a tree problem could be expensive to solve or have damaged the building in some way. Sometimes banks and mortgage companies require home buyers to get a survey before purchase. A tree inspection is particularly important if mature trees are in the grounds or near the buildings.
Never undertake tree work yourself or allow an amateur to do it because you think it will save you money. Tree work is potentially highly dangerous, requiring skilled craftsmen often high above ground level using special equipment. This equipement can only be used legally by a certificated and competent person. Do not leave yourself open to risk, avoid injury to yourself, other people, damage to your property, and legal action – household insurance will not protect you.
Land Owner & Land Managers
With over twenty years of working with land owners and the private sector The Tree Inspector offers a range of value for money services tailored to landowners needs. A comprehensive tree management service enables owners to ensure they are able to meet their duty of care in relation to trees and public safety; balanced appropriately with other land management operations.
