Disinfectant Spray in Disinfectant Cleaners

Does disinfectant spray kill the flu virus?

Always check the label for each disinfectant spray. The manufacturer will highlight the germs, viruses, and bacteria the formula is effective against. Many spray disinfectants are effective in killing germs like Staph, E. Coli, and influenza. Use the product as directed by the manufacturer for optimal results.

Can I use any disinfectant spray on soft surfaces?

Like other types of cleaners, disinfecting sprays aren’t all created equally. Some are designed for use on multiple surfaces, including a mix of hard and soft. Others are specifically for use on hard surfaces. To choose the one that will meet your needs, thoroughly read the manufacturer’s instructions and look for a multi-surface spray or one that’s tailored for use on soft surfaces.

Will disinfectant spray remove odors?

Disinfectants kill many odor-causing bacteria. Depending on the odors in question, you may need a formula specifically created to kill that particular odor. For example, urine removal formulas can neutralize odor-causing components of urine for more effective odor control. Some odor control disinfectants perform better against strong smells from cooking, locker rooms, wildlife, garbage, and diaper pails.
