A handheld omnidirectional UV-Light sanitizing device is provided. The device defines a spherical housing constructed of clear glass or formed a clear polymer. An LED unit enclosed within the housing defines a structure. The LED unit includes a power source and a plurality of UV light emitting LEDs positioned on an external portion of the structure and coupled to the power source. The LEDs are positioned around the structure to deliver UV light omnidirectional to areas proximate the housing. The UV light emitted from the LEDs is at a wavelength suitable to kill, destroy, or reduce growth of microorganisms/germs in the area proximate to the housing. In another embodiment, the housing is formed of polymer and the LEDs are positioned on an external surface of the housing.
