How Do Disinfectant Cleaners Compare to All-Purpose Cleaners?

You can use both disinfectant cleaners and all-purpose cleaners on a variety of surfaces in your home. However, their purposes differ slightly, and it’s best to know which product is ideal for tackling your cleaning duties.

• All Purpose Cleaners: An all-purpose cleaner contains surfactants that allow water to mix with oily impurities so they can be washed away. In the process, all-purpose cleaners may also physically lift germs off surfaces.
• Disinfectant Cleaners: A disinfectant cleaner usually contains surfactants, allowing it to provide the same cleaning benefits as all-purpose products. Additionally, disinfectants feature ingredients that kill germs like viruses and bacteria. They’re a popular choice for cleaning surfaces where microorganisms congregate, such as kitchen counters and bathroom sinks.

What Is Bleach?

One of the most popular household disinfectants is bleach, and it’s been used for years to clean and disinfect homes and workspaces. Bleach is both inexpensive and effective at cleaning and killing bacteria, which is why it’s such an important product to have on hand. In addition to standalone bleach, which is a concentrated disinfectant that typically need to be diluted, you can find bleach cleaners. These disinfectants combine bleach with other ingredients, making them less concentrated.

What Types of Disinfectant Cleaners Are Available?

Deciding which type of disinfectant is right for your cleaning job is one of the first decisions you'll need to make when shopping for heavy-duty cleaners.

• Disinfectant spray: Like air fresheners, these products come in aerosol or spritz bottles, allowing you to spray them into the air or directly onto a surface to eliminate harmful germs and bacteria. They’re quick and convenient as they require no preparation or application tools. Disinfectant sprays begin to work at the time they come into contact with the air or surface.
• Disinfectant wipes:Wipes are moistened towelettes that come in a tub, canister or soft package. To use them, remove one sheet, wipe it over the surface you need to disinfect and then throw it away. Their ease of use makes disinfectant wipes a good option for cleaning high-touch areas, like light switches and faucets.
• Liquid disinfectant: A liquid disinfectant may be an excellent choice when you have a big disinfecting job to tackle. Depending on the formula, these products may be ready to use or need to be diluted with water beforehand. You can pour some into a bucket for mopping, cleaning and scrubbing large areas of your home.
