Product Review Clorox Regular Bleach

Sunday, September 21st, 2008

 

During September 2008 we reviewed Clorox regular bleach.

 

This is probably the best known of the disinfectants.

Clorox claims to kill over ninety nine percent of common bacteria.

At a couple of dollars for a large bottle this is a cost effective solution to disinfecting the bathroom including that toilet bowl.

Like all disinfectants this product is most comfortable in the bathroom.

When it comes to bleach, Clorox is our favorite.

The very ingredients that make disinfectants effective could create serious complications when trying to remove urine from your carpeting and upholstery.

Disinfectants

We live in a world of bacteria and viruses.

Products that kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria or viruses are disinfectants.

Disinfectants belong in the bathroom and kitchen, not in your living room.

The very ingredients that make disinfectants effective could create serious complications when trying to remove urine from your carpeting and upholstery.

Product Review Dawn Dishwashing Liquid

Wednesday, September 10th, 2008
 

During September 2008 we reviewed the Dawn Antibacterial Dish Liquid.

This product was purchased at retail for less then three dollars.

We tested Dawn Antibacterial Dishwashing liquid for efficacy on our dishware, glassware, flatware, silverware and on cookware.

We used the two sink method filling one of the sinks half filled with cold water and one teaspoon full of the Dawn.

Dawn produced good results in our dirty dish cleaning test.

On normal non greasy breakfast dishes it performed very well after a short soak.

On greasy dishes we had to increase the amount of Dawn to two tablespoons or more to get comparable results.

This is the same protocol that would be appropriate regardless of the brand of dishwashing liquid we were evaluating.

Overall Dawn dishwashing liquid performed nicely in the kitchen.

We were unable to confirm whether Dawn is produced in the USA.
