Kill 99.9 Percent of Viruses and Bacteria LYSOL Disinfecting Wipes not only clean but also help prevent the spread of germs. They kill 99.9 percent of viruses and bacteria, including cold and flu virus. These wipes also remove over 95 percent of common allergens like pet dander and dust mite debris.

Lysol has been used since its invention in the late 19th century as a household and industrial cleaning agent, and previously as a medical disinfectant.

Our cleaning wipes are bleach-free and can be used freely around your home or office - and even on the go. Don't just take care of tough stains in the kitchen, kill 99.9% of viruses and bacteria left by raw and spoiled food. Lysol® cleaning wipes even kill Salmonella and E. coli.

Lysol is a 50% solution of cresol (3-methyl phenol) in saponified vegetable oil. Thymol is an alkyl derivative of phenol obtained from volatile oils of Thymus vulgaris, Monarda punctata, or Trachyspermum ammi. It occurs in colorless crystals with a characteristic pungent odor and taste.

quaternary ammonium compounds For other uses, like cleaning up of counters after food prep or disinfecting commonly touched surfaces, we offer a variety of disinfectant products that utilize quaternary ammonium compounds as the primary disinfecting agent, such as Lysol® Disinfectant Spray and Lysol® Laundry Sanitizer.

Lysol is toxic to humans if used incorrectly. If a person ingests Lysol, give the victim a glass of water and seek immediate medical attention. Ingesting Lysol may cause nausea, vomiting, circulatory failure, respiratory failure, central nervous system depression, liver dysfunction and kidney dysfunction.

Once upon a time, Lysol was a vaginal-cleansing douche. The company also marketed its cleaning solution as birth control between 1930 and 1960. Considering that the label lists the solution as a skin irritant, it sounds like a painful idea. Don't try it.

In 1889 a German chemist named Gustav Raupenstrauch created Lysol. During the snake-oil era, the early owners marketed Lysol as everything from a household cleanser to, more troublingly, a feminine-hygiene product.
