The County of Hawai‘i’s Cleaning and Disinfecting Task Force, also known as the “Bug Busters,” has been on a mission to keep the COVID-19 virus at bay. 

Teams of Bug Busters have been hard at work at your County facilities, focused on sanitizing high-traffic areas and high-touch surfaces seven days a week since early March. These teams, comprised of specially-trained employees, also sanitize public facilities such as shelters, post offices and County water spigots. Additionally, the Bug Busters have taken on special assignments to sanitize facilities where known positive cases were identified, such as at schools, medical facilities, and private businesses. 

“The Bug Busters are one part of our commitment to keeping our community safe from COVID-19,” said Civil Defense Administrator Talmadge Magno. “These County workers get up early every morning to get the job done.”

The teams are highly visible, travelling in County of Hawaii vehicles and wearing bright-yellow “Bug Busters” shirts, as they apply disinfecting products via sprayers, specialized fogging devices and other methods.
