Disinfectants That Kill SARS-COV2

Updated: Oct 28, 2021

by Dr. Jen Caudle



Let's face it, finding products that properly disinfect surfaces is a challenge these days due to shortages. Luckily, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) tracks and publishes this information.


The EPA has released a full list of products that have been tested and approved to kill SARS-COV2, the virus that causes COVID19. Click this link to the list of products and search for specific products: https://www.epa.gov/pesticide-registration/list-n-disinfectants-use-against-sars-cov-2-covid-19.



Many products have been added to the list, but one of the latest products added is Pine-Sol Original Multi-Surface Cleaner.



Keep in mind that there are safe and NON-SAFE ways to use disinfectants. It's important to have proper ventilation, avoid mixing substances and make sure your products have not expired. Watch this video for tips on how to properly use disinfectants:



Finally, it's also worth noting that the FDA tracks hand-sanitizers that may be potentially dangerous or ineffective. The FDA has noted of a number of hand sanitizers that contain methanol (a potentially dangerous substance), have been recalled or are sub potent.



To see if your hand sanitizer falls into this category, please check out the FDA's list of potentially dangerous hand sanitizers here: https://www.fda.gov/drugs/drug-safety-and-availability/fda-updates-hand-sanitizers-consumers-should-not-use#products.



Happy Cleaning & Disinfecting!

Great breakdown of which disinfectants are effective against SARS‑CoV‑2 — clear, evidence‑based info like this cuts through the noise and actually helps people make safer choices.

If you’re also thinking about long‑term financial planning in an Indian context, an ltv calculator India can help you quickly work out the loan‑to‑value ratio for mortgages or other loans so you know how much you’re borrowing relative to the value of the asset before committing.

This is a helpful reminder about disinfectants! Sometimes I struggle with making text fit in certain places online, especially when I need to include those pesky chemical formulas. I wonder if a small font generator could help with that!

Many reviews about domino88 recommend exploring its tournaments and competitive opportunities. Engaging in these events can improve skills and add excitement. However, it’s equally important to maintain discipline, set limits, and treat gaming as entertainment rather than chasing profits. domino88

This article breaks down how to choose the right disinfectants clearly—EPA List N products, proper dwell times, and cleaning first are key points. After reviewing it, I found myself craving something refreshing—and thought how handy a Dunkin Refreshers menu PDF would be while I clean and recharge.
