La Mesa company and owners sentenced for selling fake COVID cleaner

According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, Integral Hygienic Solutions, Inc. -- doing business as TruClean -- claimed its TruClean 365 product could eliminate the virus that causes COVID-19, as well as other viruses and bacteria, for one year when applied on surfaces.

In a plea agreement, the defendants admitted selling more than $800,000 worth of the products, which by law should have been registered as pesticides by the EPA, but weren't. When the pandemic began, the company sought to market its products to"Covid-conscientious customers," according to the memorandum, which states the Smiths viewed social media posts from their product supplier that indicated its surface coating products were effective against viruses, including SARS-CoV- 2.
