Dirt and filth

Is there a device that can detect dirt and grime other than UV hygiene lamps?

Dear inquirer,

As far as I know, contaminations that are not visible to the naked eye can only be detected through the UV lamps that have already been discussed. Bacteria, viruses, and fungal spores cannot be seen with them either.

What type of contamination are you specifically referring to?

Best regards,
